Hey guys, its Daniel from Movement 101, a common question that I get asked is what the best way is to lift something. So, I’m going to show you a few variations. With a dumbbell such as this you can squat, you can dead lift or hip hinge, you can stoop down using your spine bending or you can lunge like this. For a barbell if you want to stoop down or bend that’s okay, especially if you are accustomed to it and your strong in that position, you can also hip hinge or dead lift. If you want to squat, see how much further the weight is and notice if you practice a squat and a lunge with the weight in front of you, it makes it a lot hard. This is just to illustrate that there’s no one best way, it depends on the task and the object and what you are accustomed to. The best way is to train with a variety of options, get strong in all ranges of motion. Get confident in all ranges of motion and this will improve your capacity, reducing your risk of injury. ​
