Single-Leg RDL

In this video, you will learn how to do the single leg Romanian deadlift (RDL) by Dr. Brian Damhoff.

The single-leg RDL is advantageous for several reasons. It is a great exercise that works the posterior chain in an effective manner. It also serves as a great stability exercise. You can increase the stability component by performing the exercise on a softer surface or a stability pad or by placing a weight in only one hand. The exercise also works mobility so if you have tight hamstrings, you will definitely feel some stretch as you perform the exercise.
