Dead lifting method and suit

Abstract

A suit particularly for dead lifters comprises a front having a neckline substantially higher than in the back. This covers more of the front of the chest and reduces the tendency of the lifter to bend the upper torso forwardly. A method comprises wearing the suit while deadlifting.

1 . A method of dead lifting comprising
 wearing a tight fitting suit made of a relatively inelastic fabric that does not noticeably stretch when it is manually pulled, on the bias or parallel to the weave, the suit comprising a torso section merging with a pair of lower leg sections and a pair of straps extending over shoulders of a lifter, the torso section having a back neck line between the shoulder straps lower than a front neck line between the shoulder straps;   squatting down with a straight back and grasping a bar of a barbell with each hand; and   standing up to an erect position and thereby raising the barbell to thigh high.
