2″ Deficit Deadlift (2RM)
**Conventional stance and grip, on 2″ elevated surface
NOTES:
How?
Performed standing on a 2″ plate, elevating the Athlete 2″ higher off the floor.
Why?
Deadlifting from a deficit is somewhat controversial but extremely beneficial. Similar to accommodating resistance adding volume to the top end of the lift, deficit deadlift require the Athlete to be be more explosive off the ground through a wider range of motion, increasing a CrossFitters explosiveness in all other movements. This requires the Athletes to have additional back and pelvis awareness when setting up. As long as the Athlete is able to maintain good midline positioning the deficit deadlift can be very beneficial in increasing how much weight one can pul conventionally. Athletes can expect a 20% decrease when compared to the conventional deadlift.
