Single-Leg Barbell Deadlift for Men

Single-Leg Barbell Deadlift

  1. Load the barbell and roll it against your shins. Place the instep of one foot on a bench that's about 2 feet behind you. Bend at your hips and knees and grab the bar with an overhand grip, your hands just beyond shoulder width.
  2. Without allowing your lower back to round, pull your torso back and up, thrust your hips forward, and stand up with the barbell. Lower the bar to the floor, keeping it as close to your body as possible. Complete the prescribed number of reps with your right foot on the bench, then do the same number with your left foot on the bench.
