‼️FIX YOUR ROMANIAN DEADLIFTS‼️
💪🏽“Developing” The point of strength training should be to strengthen muscles or increase their size correctly with good form and technique.
🏋🏽♂️For instance; The Romanian deadlift is one of my favourite exercises for developing a strong posterior chain - but yet I still see people butcher their backs during this exercise.
🍑If you are not engaging your hamstrings and glutes while you perform the Romanian deadlift, you’re probably not developing them like you could be.
😢You’re completely missing out on the benefit of movement and most probably your poor lower back is doing ALL the work.
If your glutes and hamstrings aren’t doing any of the work, your lower back is forced to do it all.
😊Firstly, learn properly on how to engage and strengthen your hamstrings and glutes, as you will notice that the weight will feel lighter because you have more prime movers doing their job.
Your lower back will thank you for it. Trust me.
👨🏽🔧So the take home message is… Fix yo s**t
