Bent Knee Deadlift with Bicep Curls Exercise

This is a great combination exercise to work several large muscle groups at one time! Works the quads, abs, butt and biceps.

How to Perform the Dead Lift:

• Stand with legs shoulder-width apart, a 3 to 5 pound dumbbell in each hand, palms facing front. Lean forward from the hips and squat until your legs make a 90-degree angle.
• Slowly stand up and curl the dumbbells up to your chest. Gradually lower your arms to complete the repetition.
• Do as many reps as you can in four minutes (about 20 to 40).
