How To Perform the Single Leg Deadlift

  1. Stand upright with feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.

  3. Hinge at the hips, lowering the dumbbells towards the floor while extending the opposite leg straight behind you.
  4. Maintain a neutral spine and engage your core throughout the movement.
  5. Lower until your torso is parallel to the floor or you feel a stretch in the hamstrings.
  6. Return to the starting position by driving through the heel and engaging the glutes.
  7. Repeat for the desired number of reps before switching legs. Inhale as you lower and exhale as you return to standing.
