Fixing your RDL 💜

If you feeling your RDL more in the lower back or hamstrings this is for you:

Notes:
One thing to add is how common the toes to lift off when hinging back (I didn’t notice it until we used the dumbbells & watching back she was doing it from when I forced more hinge) if this happens take your shoes off like we did and focus a little more pressure on the balls of your feet pushing into the floor with the whole foot.

If you hold your Dumbells straight and in front they can sometimes feel like they are pulling you down if your shoulders aren’t locked in they will round create a curve in your back. Angel them to the side slightly and keep your finger tips attached to your legs throughout the whole movement - don’t let the dumbbell move forward and away from your body.

Also going too far past your knee will shift the weight from your glutes and hamstrings to your lower back so if you stop just past the knee where your back is at 90 angle is better even if you have to flexibility to go lower.
