Banded Barbell Romanian Deadlift (RDL) | Proper Technique for Targeting Glutes
Channel: Physique Development
Date: 16/04/2021

In this video, Physique Development Coach Alex Bush takes Coach Sue through the proper technique and execution of the Barbell Hip-Banded Romanian Deadlift (RDL) — an exercise that can be used to challenge the glutes and hamstrings.

The bent-knee RDL is fantastic for training the glutes & hamstrings through their lengthened/mid-range positions. By adding the band + a little bit of forward lean as you’ll see in the video, you’re able to now train the glutes in their shortened position as well. Awesome!

One common error we see with new Physique Development clients is not enough hip extension (pushing hips back) and just focusing on vertical movement. The main point of this movement is hip extension, so focus your attention on your hips moving forward and back through this movement while maintaining tension, rather than how quickly can I move this bar vertically.

We originally picked this exercise up from N1 Education and it has quickly become a staple with our Physique Development 1-on-1 clients.
