Barbell Rack Pull

A partial deadlift pulled from a raised pin position — heavy back loading without the demand of a full lift from the floor.

Step by step

Set the safety pins in a rack at about knee height and load the bar to your working weight.
Stand with feet hip-width apart, bar over mid-foot, and grip just outside the knees.
Pull the slack out of the bar, brace the core, and pull the chest up tall with a flat back.
Drive the floor away with your legs while keeping the bar dragging close to your thighs.
Stand fully tall by squeezing the glutes and locking out the hips and knees together.
Lower the bar back to the pins under control, reset your breath, and repeat for clean reps.

Log your sets. After a few weeks you will see whether it is moving. Free.
