Dumbbell Hinge Bow to Shallow Squat

Setup

• Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a pair of dumbbells at your sides with a neutral grip.

Movement

1. The Hinge: Initiate the movement by pushing your hips straight back, keeping your back flat and a slight bend in your knees while lowering the dumbbells towards your shins.

2. The Squat: From the bottom of the hinge, drop your hips down into a shallow squat position while bringing the dumbbells up to shoulder height, keeping your core engaged and chest proud.

3. Return: Reverse the motion by standing back up, lowering the dumbbells, and returning to the standing starting position.

4. Repeat: Continue the sequence in a fluid motion for the desired number of repetitions.
