How To Deadlift At Planet Fitness!

While traditional deadlifts work your stabilizer muscles, doing deadlifts on the smith machine is a great place to learn your form and get the movement down and provides a solid workout on 90% of the same muscles.

Is it superior? No. Will it work, and actually work well? Yeah!

So here it is a full tutorial on how to do a smith machine deadlift specifically at Planet Fitness complete with a short girl gym hack for my travel sized sisters and misters!

Tag your gym buddy and let me know if you end up trying smith deadlifts!

Ideally you’d want the bar right above the center of your foot (i.e., lower) and you’d want it to travel as close to your legs as possible while rising. Honestly I’d just find a better gym that allows for deadlifting, lol

The cable machine deadlift is probably better than the smith machine for deadlift like exercises.

Wish they had a hex bar. Not at the one I go to

Thanks for the video…what is travel size….you mean short height

You're still on a smith machine that's doing some of the work for you - just deadlift some heavy dumbbells. Also standing on weight plates does nothing but make you worry about losing your balance - the floor is already level.
