How to do it

  1. Select the appropriate pair of dumbbells and place them on both sides of your body.
  2. Lean forward and bend your knees to grab the dumbbells.
  3. Bring your chest out and back in a neutral position.
  4. Push through your heels and extend your hips to deadlift the weights from the floor.
  5. Stand tall, retract your shoulder blades, keep your abs engaged, hold the dumbbells by your sides, and begin walking forward.
  6. Move forward at a steady pace, keeping your body rigid and breathing steadily as you do.
  7. Grip the dumbbell handles as hard as possible and walk as far as you can.
  8. Once finished, lower the dumbbells by first pushing your buttocks back and then bending your knees, similar to how you would for a deadlift.
