🚨RDL tip alert 🚨 This is one of my favorite movements. It’s simple but a lot of people struggle with execution. Some helpful cues: 1. Engage the lats! My favorite cue for this is to think about squeezing & holding an orange in ur armpit. You can see I engage the lats immediately when I lift the bar & they stay engaged the entire time 2. Break at the hips! The RDL is a hinge movement. You start the movement by pushing the hips/pelvis back & lowering the chest towards the floor. 3. Bend at the knees! This is primarily a glute/lower back & exercise with some hammies. For more hammies, u would do a straight leg deadlift (SLDL), which unlike the name suggests also requires a slight bend in the knees but not as much bend as an RDL 4. The bar stays touching/grazing the front of ur legs the entire time. The bar should slide along the thigh, over the knee, down to mid-shin. There should be no space between bar & leg. Engaging the lats prevents the bar from drifting away. 5. Do not go lower than mid shin. Notice the space between the plates & floor 6. Keep toes down! Feel the floor with the toes, do not lift or elevate the toes 6. Keep neutral neck/spine (I’m guilty of looking up or tucking the chin sometimes)
