Strength exercise

Romanian Deadlift

How to do it

Stand with feet hip width apart, gripping the bar just outside the legs with the bar resting against the thighs.
Keep a soft bend in the knees and push the hips straight back while keeping the bar close to the legs.
Lower the bar along the thighs and shins until a strong stretch is felt through the hamstrings, keeping the back flat.
Stop the descent around mid shin or once the hamstring stretch limits further hip hinge.
Drive the hips forward to return to standing, squeezing the glutes and hamstrings at the top.
Keep the shoulders pulled back and the bar against the legs instead of letting it drift forward.
