Bottle Weighted Single-Leg Romanian Deadlift
The single-leg Romanian deadlift with a water bottle in each hand; the light load leaves room to master the balance.
How to do it
Setup
Standing on one leg, knee soft, a bottle by its handle in each hand at the sides.
Steps
- Tip forward from the hip, the free leg rising behind in line with the torso.
- Lower both bottles toward the floor by the standing foot, hips level.
- Return to upright on the same leg; finish the side, switch.
Common mistakes
Free hip rolling open: both hip points face the floor. Bottles drifting out in front: let them hang straight below the shoulders. Standing knee locked straight: soft all the way.
Breathing
Inhale hinging, exhale standing.
