LEARN MORE #3) Staggered Stance Barbell RDL\u2019s + Posterior Band Resistance Your front leg should be doing most of the work. Use the back leg as a \u2018\u2019kickstand\u2019\u2019 of support. The band resistance, which is coming posteriorly, helps reinforce the hip hinging movement and really forces you to use the posterior chain muscles during the lockout. If you lose focus for even a second the band will hold you accountable and you\u2019ll get pulled backwards.\u2063 Coaching Tips: Fasten a resistance band around a secure surface, and loop the band around your hip crease. There should be a significant amount of resistance in the band for 100% of the exercise, and the resistance should be coming posteriorly.&nbsp; Adopt a staggered stance. On the front foot, form a tripod base by placing your weight on the back portion of your foot, and the base of your big and baby toes.

Now hinge\/push your hips backwards. Pretend a rope is pulling your hips backwards or that you are trying to press your hips back against a wall.\u2063 When you are hinging, pretend you are \u201cpulling\u201d your body down and back with your posterior chain muscles. \u2063\u2063\u2063 \u2063\u2063\u2063 \u2063\u2063\u2063Do not relax or lose tension when you are in the bottom position. \u2063\u2063\u2063 When you reach your full range, engage your posterior chain muscles and press your body away from the floor and back to the top\/starting position.

You may use a landmine attachment but this isn\u2019t mandatory. \u2063 \u2063 Loop a long band around the end of the barbell, and place the band under the middle of your feet. There should be resistance in the band for 100% of the exercise, and the resistance should be even on both sides. \u2063 \u2063 Hold the end of the barbell in both hands.\u2063 \u2063 \u2063\u2063 Adopt your preferred stance.\u2063\u2063\u2063 \u2063 Form a tripod base by placing your weight on the back portion of your feet, and the base of your big and baby toes.
