single-leg deadlifts
The single-leg deadlift is a strength training exercise that targets the muscles in the legs, glutes, and core. It involves balancing on one leg while bending at the hips to lower a weight, such as a dumbbell or kettlebell, toward the ground. This movement helps improve balance, stability, and coordination.
To perform a single-leg deadlift, start by standing on one leg with a slight bend in the knee. Hinge at the hips, extending the other leg straight behind you while lowering the weight. Keep your back straight and core engaged throughout the movement. Return to the starting position and repeat on the other leg.
