Exercise Tip: RDL on a Machine?

Flex Wheeler • August 19, 2021

Here's an option for RDLs.

Exercise Tip:

An alternative to the Romanian Dead Lift...or if all the platforms, racks, Smith Machines, etc. are taken during prime time. Good Mornings on a Squat Press-type of machine can actually be better than a traditional barbell Deadlift. Why? A barbell will stop hip extension movement once the bar reaches your body. What we typically see is the exerciser will then overcompensate by hyperextending their lumbar spine. This machine version allows for FULL hip extension, while still engaging entire spinal structure musculature. All the benefits while saving your back and your grip...

Enjoy!!!
