Romanian deadlift: how to do it
1 of 3
Bar in front of your thighs
Starting position
Stand hip-width and hold the bar in front of your thighs with your hands just outside your legs and knees slightly bent.
The movement
Push your hips back and lower the bar close to your legs until your hamstrings stretch, then drive your hips forward and stand.
Most common mistake
Don't let the bar drift from your legs or round your back, keep the bar close and your back straight.
