I haven't put up a video in a while.
I wanted to get my next set which is less wobbly. However as soon as I finished recording an influx of people came and there was to much traffic to get good footage.
Some key points with this exercise
Keep the Neck Packed
Keep both shoulders in the socket and packed to activate lats
Keep a braced core
Sink back the hips like in the RDL
The Glute of the back leg should be contracted to maintain stability
Keep the hips and toes in alignment and not externally rotated.
Its interesting watching yourself on film. You can really pick apart the mechanics of movements. I didn't think I had my toes quasi rotated, but it gives me something to work on now. I should pair the Lateral Hamstring Stretch with this and be more attentive.
I usually do these contral laterally. That is holding the dumbbell in the opposite side hand of the standing leg. It puts more of a core stability challenge and strengthening the core x pattern. You can also hold the weight in the standing leg hand (Ipsilateral) this presents less of a challenge. Holding a dumbbell in each hand is another option.
