Snatch Grip Deficit Deadlift Video Exercise Guide

Snatch Grip Deficit Deadlift Video Exercise Guide

The snatch grip deficit deadlift is a variation of the deficit deadlift and an exercise used to strengthen the entire posterior chain including the hamstrings, back, calves, glutes, and traps.

The main difference between a snatch grip deadlift and other deadlift variations is the grip placement.

The snatch grip deficit deadlift utilizes a very wide grip, which is perfect for those seeking to provide additional tension on the traps when deadlifting.

The use of the deficit as seen in the snatch grip deficit deadlift increases the range of motion of the deadlift. This can help lifters build a stronger deadlift, especially if they struggle with the bottom portion of the lift.
