How to do Kettlebell Romanian Deadlift
Setup
Stand with feet hip-width apart holding a kettlebell in each hand (or one heavy bell with both hands) in front of your thighs, knees softly bent.
How to do it
- Push your hips back while keeping your spine neutral and chest tall
- Lower the kettlebells along the front of your legs until you feel a strong hamstring stretch
- Drive your hips forward to return to standing, squeezing your glutes
- Keep the kettlebells close to your body for the entire rep
Watch out for
- Squatting down instead of hinging, which shifts the work away from the hamstrings
- Rounding the lower back at the bottom of the hinge
