Mix It Up! Single Leg Deadlift to Bicep Curl

It's time for a Mix It Up post!  I've found lately that I've been too busy to hit the gym everyday and split up muscle groups when I lift.  The solution is to instead do a couple full body workouts with exercises that work multiple muscle groups.  That is why I have chosen a deadlift mixed with a bicep curl for the Mix It Up exercise.  A single leg deadlift will work balance, core, upper back, shoulders,hamstrings, and biceps.  When doing this exercise, try it first without any weight.  You are hinging at the hips to create a flat table from your head to your foot.  It's important to keep a flat back with your shoulders rolled back. Also, make a note to NEVER lock out any of your joints.  Need an added challenge?  Try doing this exercise while on the BOSU (either side)!
