Leah Harris: A Journey of Confidence and Strength at Poseidon Performance
Leah Harris, a 18-year-old with an interest in fitness but limited experience, first came to Poseidon Performance at the request of her parents, who wanted someone they trusted to guide her in the gym. What began as a cautious introduction to exercise quickly blossomed into a life-changing experience. Leah joined a training regimen alongside Nicholas Martin-Jones and Rosie Jessop, both experienced in helping individuals unlock their potential through tailored coaching.
Benefits of Doing Pause Deadlifts
How pause deadlifts can help and why you should even implement a pause deadlift into your training routine.
Well, here are some concrete benefits that you’ll get from pause deadlifting:
1: It reinforces the angles for your torso and shoulders
The angle of your torso and shoulders is important if you want to use your mechanics to leverage the movement more effectively. If you struggle with keeping your shoulders over the barbell, or your hips rise too fast out of the bottom position, the paused deadlift can help reinforce where your torso and shoulders should be within the range of motion. I like to implement paused deadlifts for beginners in order to teach them what it feels like to have their torso and shoulders in the correct position.
