Dumbbell Single-Leg Swing Deadlift

Setup

• Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a single dumbbell in one hand.

Movement

• Keep a slight bend in your supporting knee while hinging at your hips.

• As you lower, hinge forward by pushing your hips straight back. Keep your back flat and core engaged.

• The non-working leg should extend back behind you to maintain balance. The dumbbell should hang straight down toward the floor throughout the movement.

• Return to the starting position by driving through the heel of your standing foot and squeezing your glute as you stand tall.

Form Tips

• Focus on balancing your weight through the entire foot of your standing leg.

• Imagine you are pressing your back heel against an imaginary wall to help stabilize your hips.
