Deadlift (Dumbbell)

Also known as: Deadlift (Dumbbell).

Conventional dumbbell deadlift from a low hips-back setup with both hip and knee extension.

How to perform this exercise

1. Start low with one dumbbell in each hand beside the shins. Set the feet around hip width and bend both hips and knees with a neutral back.
2. Push through both feet and extend the hips and knees to stand. Keep the arms long and dumbbells close to the legs.
3. Send the hips back and bend the knees to lower the dumbbells under control.
4. Use a depth that allows a controlled torso; do not force the weights to reach the floor.
