How to perform the dumbbell romanian deadlift (rdl)
- Stand with feet hip-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand with an overhand grip, hands facing your thighs. Keep your knees slightly bent and your back straight. Hinge at your hips and lower the dumbbells down the front of your legs, maintaining a slight bend in your knees. Lower the dumbbells until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, keeping the dumbbells close to your legs. Engage your hamstrings and glutes to return to the starting position. Repeat.
