The Rickshaw Deadlift mimics a trap-bar lift with handles positioned slightly higher, reducing the range of motion and making it beginner-friendly. FitnessTracker recommends this variation for developing posterior chain strength with reduced stress on the lower back.
Instructions
- Load the rickshaw frame with your chosen weight and stand between the handles.
- Grip the handles firmly, brace your core, and lower your hips slightly.
- Lift by pushing through your heels while maintaining a flat back and high chest.
- Stand tall at the top, squeezing your glutes.
- Lower the frame under control to the ground and reset for your next rep.
