Dumbbell Romanian Deadlift

How to do it

1. Stand holding a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs, feet hip width apart.

2. Soften your knees and keep them there. The knees stay in that position for the whole set.

3. Push your hips back and let the dumbbells travel down the front of your legs, staying close to your skin.

4. Stop when you feel a strong stretch in your hamstrings, usually somewhere between the knee and mid shin. Your back stays flat the whole way.

5. Drive your hips forward to stand back up.
