Eric Roberts breaks down three form fixes for dumbbell RDLs: keep a soft knee bend instead of locking out, lower only until you feel a hamstring stretch, and drive your hips forward at the bottom instead of using your lower back to stand up.
And if you don't love me now, you will never love me again. I can still hear you saying you will never break me.
If you struggle with RDLs, stop trying to keep your legs completely straight. Instead, have a soft bend in them on the way down. And second, stop trying to go all the way down. Go down until you feel that stretch in the back of your legs, stop there. And third, once you get to the bottom, don't think about standing up because you're going to use your lower back, and instead think about bringing your hips forward. Try these tips out and I hope it helps.
