@gialayn: 🥀🥀🥀 . posting two diff versions to see which does better .. which did u see first? Most Common Mistakes ∙ Rounding the lower back — This is the #1 error. Keep your spine neutral the entire time ∙ Bending the knees too much — RDLs are NOT squats. A slight bend is fine, but the movement is hip-dominant ∙ Looking up too aggressively — Keep your neck neutral, eyes slightly forward and down ∙ Letting the bar drift away from the body — The bar should stay close at all times to reduce force on the spine ∙ Going too heavy too soon — The RDL is a feel exercise. Prioritize the stretch and tension over load Tips to Maximize Results ∙ Push the floor away slightly as you hinge — this helps engage the glutes ∙ Think “proud chest” as you lower — this cue naturally keeps the spine neutral ∙ Use a 3-second eccentric (lowering) phase to increase time under tension and hamstring activation ∙ If you struggle to feel your hamstrings, try the dumbbell variation first . . . 👀
