Deadlifts are a key part of any lower-body workout. They don’t just work your lower body, either; this exercise, which involves lifting a heavy weight off the floor using a hip hinge, then standing back up, targets many different muscles in the body. Deadlifts are pretty much a great all-rounder, which is why they’re an essential exercise to be included in your workout routine.
As a personal trainer, I encourage clients to add deadlifts to their workout routine, whether that's using adjustable dumbbells, kettlebells, or barbells. Although it can take a while to figure out proper form, when done correctly, deadlifts are brilliant at strengthening your muscles, improving your posture and your performance in other sports.
