If your hip hinge is sloppy, you’re wasting strength and setting yourself up for injury. Start every deadlift or kettlebell swing by pushing your hips back until you feel a stretch in the hamstrings, then drive forward with your glutes, keeping a neutral spine the whole time.

Own the movement, lock the form, and crush your lifts this week. 👊
