Overview
Dumbbell Romanian Deadlift (RDL) is a strength exercise for the posterior chain, with the lower back, hamstrings, and glutes doing most of the work. It follows the same movement pattern as the traditional Romanian Deadlift, but you hold dumbbells instead of a barbell. This adaptable lift trains the posterior chain and can improve your overall functional fitness in several ways.
