If you don't have a kettlebell, you can do this deadlift with dumbbells, a barbell, or any other type of weight like a sandbag.
How to Do a Kettlebell Sumo Deadlift:
- Start standing with your feet wider than hip-width apart with a kettlebell between your feet.
- Bend at your hips and knees as you grab the handle of the kettlebell with both hands, keeping your back flat and core engaged. Think about pulling your shoulder blades back and down.
- Keeping your back flat and shoulders relaxed, push your heels into the ground as you stand up, lifting the kettlebell, so it's hanging between your legs.
- Squeeze your glutes at the top, then hinge at the hips and knees to slowly lower the weight to the ground.
- That's one rep. Do three sets of eight reps.
