Barbell Suitcase Deadlift

Begin by standing with your feet hip-width apart and holding a barbell at one side of your body, with your palms facing your thighs. Keeping your core engaged and your back straight, bend at the hips and knees to lower the barbell down towards the ground. As the barbell reaches the ground, use your legs and glutes to push through your heels and extend your hips and knees to raise your body back to the starting position. Repeat the movement for the desired number of reps, then switch sides and repeat the exercise with the barbell on the opposite side of your body.
