Episode Synopsis "A Love Letter to the Deadlift"

Welcome back to episode 17 of the RBI Performance Podcast, where Steven and Blair continue the Summer Strength Series and take a closer look at the controversial deadlift. They discuss the pros and cons and the potential athletic carryover of including some form of the deadlift into a well-designed training program, the different types of deadlifts, and how they would start a young athlete looking into learning and properly executing the lift. They also discuss what a wrecking ball is, how big Blair's neck was in high school, and update you on the Texas High School Baseball Playoffs.
