Trap Bar Deadlift

Other Quadriceps

The Trap Bar Deadlift is a strength movement that targets your quadriceps. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Trap Bar Deadlift

  1. Step inside the trap bar, feet hip-width, and grip the handles evenly.
  2. Hinge at the hips, brace your core, and set a neutral spine before you pull.
  3. Drive the floor away with your legs and lock out hips and knees simultaneously at the top.
  4. Lower the bar under control — don't drop it unless using a platform.
