The kettlebell deadlift is a basic exercise that targets the lower back, gluteal and hamstring muscles. The exercise can be used as a warm up with a light weight. Once you have warmed up, increase the weight for a full kettlebell workout.

How to perform the kettlebell deadlift

• With feet wider than hip width apart, sit back and grab the kettlebell.
• Standup with the kettlebell, ensure the back is kept flat.
• Lower the kettlebell between the ankles and repeat.

Important notes:

• Use this exercise to learn the difference between bending the waist (not desired) and creasing at the hips (desired).
• Keep the back straight.
• Engage the scapular muscles in your shoulder.
