루마니안 데드리프트

A hip-hinge movement targeting the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back, starting from a standing position with minimal knee bend.

Instructions:

• Stand tall holding a barbell in front of your thighs with an overhand grip, feet hip-width apart.

• Keep your chest up, shoulders back, and core braced.

• Initiate the movement by pushing your hips back while keeping a slight bend in the knees.

• Lower the bar along your thighs until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, keeping the bar close to your body.

• Drive your hips forward to return to the starting position.

Common mistakes:

• Rounding the lower back.

• Bending the knees too much.

• Letting the bar drift away from the body.

• Overextending at the top.
