Dumbbell Deadlift


Today's movement is the dumbbell deadlift. Start with a hip-width stance with dumbbells on either side of your feet. Keep your back straight and your shoulders slightly forward of the dumbbells at the set-up. Focus on pushing your feet into the ground while standing tall. Do not let your back round as you lift.


This movement has many different variations. If you have a barbell, you'll be able to build up to a heavier weight than with dumbbells, but dumbbells tend to require more core stability. If you only have 1 dumbbell, or 1 kettlebell, you can perform deadlifts with the weight on 1 side of your body at a time. You can also try sumo deadlifts with the weight centered between your legs.


Start by warming up with glute bridges and always begin with light weight focusing on technique as you slowly work up to a heavier weight. Look for this movement to be included in the upcoming Wednesday Workout.
