Instructions

Stand upright and hold a dumbbell in one hand. Position the dumbbell in front of your upper thigh, with your arm straight. Your other arm can be out to your side for balance. On the side which is holding the dumbbell, raise your leg and lower your torso, with the aim of having your leg and torso inline with each other at the bottom of the movement. Return to the starting position by raising your torso and lowering the lifted leg. Keep your core braced and the knee of the supporting leg slightly bent throughout the movement. Repeat for the desired number of reps, then repeat on the other leg.

Tip

Do not round your back in order to lower the weight. Ensure you are hinging at the hips to lower the weight. You should feel this exercise in the supported leg’s glute and hamstring.
