The hip hinge is the foundation of the deadlift and a movement you use every day to lift groceries, laundry baskets, gardening supplies, and other objects from the floor. In this video, Dr. Holly Lewis of 603 PT & Wellness demonstrates hip-hinge progressions to help you improve your technique, build strength, and feel more confident while lifting: Wall hip hinge Dowel hip hinge Unloaded deadlift Elevated deadlift from a box Full deadlift There is no single “perfect” deadlift for every person.
