Muscles Targeted:

• This exercise primarily targets the hamstrings and glutes but the needed muscular control also recruits the abs, obliques, and lower leg muscles more than your stand Romanian Deadlift.

Form:

• Start with your feet together and the weight in the opposite hand of your working leg.

• Keep your upper body tight, and focus on bringing the hip back and getting a stretch in the hamstring, instead of bringing the dumbbell down to a certain point.

• Contract the stretched muscles and return to your starting position.

Rep Ranges:

• Going at a slow pace is important to get the most out of this exercise.

• Perform sets at any rep range but don’t go too heavy without any support.
