How To Do A Double Dumbbell Single Leg Romanian Deadlift (RDL) Correctly
The Double Dumbbell Single Leg Romanian Deadlift, also known as single leg RDLs, is a great unilateral exercise that independently works the muscles in the hamstrings and glutes, while building overall balance, stability, and core strength.
To get started:
- While standing, hold a pair of dumbbells and raise one foot off the ground and a few inches behind you.
- Contract your core for balance, then lean forward with your hips and maintain a straight flat back until your upper torso is close to or parallel to the ground.
- At this point, the dumbbells should hang down straight inline with your shoulders.
- Press your planted foot through the ground to return back to the starting position, without touching your other foot to the ground.
- Squeeze your glutes at the top and repeat.
- Complete the reps with one leg, then switch legs and repeat with the other.
