What it concludes

• Pause deadlifts force you to start the lift twice and reinforce the bottom position.
• The movement should start with a push, pause 1 to 2 inches off the floor, and push again.
• Common mistakes include rushing the pause, losing position from the floor to the pause, and going from a push to a pull too early.
• Pause deadlifts can be programmed at 45 to 55 percent for beginners or used as a secondary exercise with similar intensity and volume as competition deadlifts.
