Single Leg Dead Lift

I found this exercise in the recent issue of Fitness Magazine.  It was one of the exercises I did the other night while watching Biggest Loser.  My legs were definitely feeling it the next day!

Single-Leg Deadlift

Targets: Back, butt, and hamstrings
  • Stand on left leg, knee slightly bent, with toes of right foot on floor slightly behind you, holding a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing fronts of thighs.
  • Keeping back flat, bend forward at hips until back is parallel to floor and dumbbells hang directly below shoulders, extending right leg behind you to hip level.
  • Do 15 reps. Switch legs, repeat.
