Deadlift (1-Leg Double Kettlebell Alternating)

The Alternating Double KB deadlift is a powerful exercise by singling out one leg in the deadlift process. It requires balance and focuses the work on the hamstring and glutes and lower back. This is a great core exercise and will help not only strengthen the posterior chain but bring out the definition of the back of the legs. By alternating legs it allows you to perform more repetitions focusing more of the work on your core. By doubling the bells you, you double the amount of tension of the working muscles.

Place a pair of kettlebells at your toes with your feet together.

Pick up both kettlebells using just one leg raising the other one behind you

Maintaining a straight back, place the kettlebells back down and switch legs

Drive your hips forward as you raise the kettlebell up. Maintain a tight core and feel the tension on the hamstrings and glutes. Squeeze the handle tightly. Look slightly up without raising your head.
