How to Romanian Deadlift

Starting Position

1. Please spread your legs shoulder-width apart.

2. Please grip the barbell shoulder-width apart.

3. Stand with the barbell while keeping your chest upright.

Proper Form

1. Lower the barbell vertically to just below your knees while keeping it attached to your body.

2. As you go down, let your hips move back first and naturally bend your knees.

3. When coming up, straighten your knees first and bring your hips forward.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when you raise your upper body, and inhale when you lower your upper body.

Precautions

1. Please be careful not to let the barbell come away from your body.

2. Keep your arms straight so that your elbows do not bend.

3. Engage your core to prevent your back from rounding.
