3 milestones
Establish a clean 2× bodyweight deadlift and have a coach or experienced training partner observe your mechanics closely to identify where the lift breaks down as you push toward 2.5×. The sticking point at this level is almost always specific — off the floor, at the knee, or at lockout — and the M2 programme must target it directly.
Proof required
Submit: (1) video of a 2× bodyweight deadlift with full lockout; (2) written analysis from a coach or experienced training partner naming the specific sticking point and its cause.
What gets checked
- 2× BW lift shows clean mechanics — full ROM from floor to lockout, neutral spine, no hitch
- Sticking point analysis names a specific mechanical position (e.g., 'bar slows at mid-shin due to early hip rise')
- Analysis is from someone with demonstrable training experience — not self-assessed alone
