To properly perform a Romanian Deadlift, begin by standing upright with your shoulders, hips, and knees in a straight line, holding weights in front of you, and keeping your spine in a neutral position. Slightly flex your knees. The rest of the exercise’s motion should come from the flexion of the hips. Bend your torso at the hips as you push back your hips as far as you can. You should feel a tight stretch in your hamstrings at this point. Come back up to the starting position by squeezing your butt and pushing your hips forward. This is a great move if you’re looking to tone your legs and butt!
