Deficit Romanian Deadlift (Barbell)

Also called Romanian Deadlift from Deficit (Barbell), Romanian Deadlift from Deficit, Deficit RDL, BB Deficit Romanian Deadlift

How to do it

Stand on a stable one-to-three-inch platform holding the bar against your thighs with soft knees. Push your hips back and lower the bar close to your legs below foot level until the hamstrings reach a controlled stretch, then drive the hips forward to stand tall. Keep your spine neutral and do not chase depth by rounding.
