The kettlebell romanian deadlift builds strong hamstrings and glutes while teaching proper hip hinge movement. This exercise strengthens your entire posterior chain.

How To

1. Hold a kettlebell with both hands in front of your thighs, feet hip-width apart 2. Keep your knees slightly bent and chest up as you hinge at the hips 3. Lower the kettlebell by pushing your hips back until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings during the kettlebell romanian deadlift 4. Drive your hips forward to return to the starting position 5. Squeeze your glutes at the top and repeat the kettlebell romanian deadlift movement

Form Tips

• Keep the kettlebell close to your body throughout the entire kettlebell romanian deadlift movement • Focus on pushing your hips back rather than bending your knees • Maintain a neutral spine with your chest up and shoulders back • Feel the stretch in your hamstrings during the kettlebell romanian deadlift lowering phase

Common Mistakes

• Rounding your back instead of keeping your chest up during the kettlebell romanian deadlift • Bending your knees too much and turning it into a squat movement • Letting the kettlebell drift away from your body during the kettlebell romanian deadlift
