Romanian Deadlift Form Guide
Romanian deadlifts target the posterior chain with minimal knee bend. Start standing, bar at hips. Push hips back while keeping legs relatively straight—knees unlock but don't bend much. Lower bar along thighs until you feel a stretch in hamstrings, usually just below knees. Squeeze glutes and drive hips forward to return to standing. Keep bar close to body, back neutral, and never round your lower back.
