Single Leg RDL to Snatch Cues:
- Start exercise in a standing position: feet comfortable width, core engaged, bar held in front arms extended, shoulders back, and chest up.
- As you find balance on one leg you will hinge forward from the hips, the leg off the ground will go backwards as you keep a neutral spine and hinge forward with bar extended at your shins.
- Feel the stretch of you hamstrings, then squeeze your glutes as you come to a balanced standing position with your elbows upward and the bar at chin level.
- Continue the snatch movement and push the bar overhead while you maintain your balance on one leg.
- Return to start position in a controlled movement for one rep.
Ideas for Exercise Uses:
- Perform as a compound power up exercise to single leg rdl's.
- Add to a leg day giant set workout as the single leg exercise.
- Use as a balance strength training exercise at the end of a full body workout.
