#Info – Dumbbell Deadlift
The dumbbell deadlift is a versatile exercise targeting the posterior chain, including glutes, hamstrings, and lower back. Common mistakes include rounding the back and using momentum. Focus on maintaining a neutral spine and controlled movement. For beginners, start with lighter weights to master form. Advanced users can increase weight for added challenge. Adjust foot positioning for comfort; shoulder-width is standard. Enhance grip strength by varying dumbbell holds. This exercise improves functional strength and posture. Include it in lower body workouts or full-body routines for balanced development.
