One-Arm Side Deadlift

How to do the One-Arm Side Deadlift

1. 1

   Stand to the side of a barbell next to its center. Bend your knees and lower your body until you are able to reach the barbell.

2. 2

   Grasp the bar as if you were grabbing a briefcase (palms facing you since the bar is sideways). You may need a wrist wrap if you are using a significant amount of weight. This is your starting position.

4. 4

   Slowly bring the barbell back down while inhaling. Tip: Make sure to bend your knees while lowering the weight to avoid any injury from occurring.

5. 5

   Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
