Move of the week
Our move of the week is an awesome lower-body fat burner. Try the straight-leg deadlift for hot pins and a tight tush
How to do it
With your feet hip-width apart, hold a barbell with both hands just wider than hip-width.
Keeping a slight bend in the knees and the barbell close to your legs throughout, bend at the hips to slowly lower the barbell to about mid-shin height.
Keep your shoulders back and gaze forwards throughout.
Extend the hips to lift the barbell back to the start and repeat.
Top tip
Use an ‘alternate’ grip – with palms facing opposite directions – for heavier weights. Switch them round per set.
