Staggered Stance RDLs 🏋️♂️
.
A staggered stance Romanian Deadlift (RDL) is a variation of the classic RDL where one foot is placed slightly in front of the other. This creates a unilateral (single-leg focused) movement while maintaining some stability from the back foot.
.
Why Do Them? 💪
• 🔥 Targeted muscle engagement: Emphasizes one hamstring and glute at a time, improving strength imbalances.
• 🎯 Better stability: Easier to balance than single-leg RDLs, making it a great middle ground for progression.
• 🦵 Core activation: Your core works harder to stabilize in this stance, enhancing overall stability.
.
How Is It Different? 🤔
Unlike traditional RDLs (both feet parallel) or single-leg RDLs (one foot off the ground), the staggered stance focuses on one side without sacrificing balance. It’s perfect for beginners to unilateral training or those looking to fine-tune their hinge mechanics!
