The Romanian Deadlift is one of my all-time favorite posterior chain exercises. It ain't easy, it ain't pretty, but it works.
To start a Romanian deadlift set, deadlift the bar up normally, bracing beforehand of course. From the top position, push the hips back to lower the bar, keeping it close. The bar should be as close as possible to the body during the entire lift. Keeping a slight bend in the knees will make the movement feel a lot more natural, you don't want to have your knees locked.
At the same time, you don't want to be getting a lot of "leg drive" by using the quads in the bottom position, either. You also don't want a lot of back movement during the lift, a bit is OK during an RDL but not a ton
For more info check my book, along with hundreds of other movements! 4.9 stars, 8 dollars, 200+ pages of awesomeness!
