Dumbbell Deadlift (version 2)

Stand with feet hip-width apart holding a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs. Keep your chest up, shoulders back, and core braced. Hinge at the hips by pushing them backward while maintaining a slight bend in the knees. Lower the dumbbells straight down along the front of your legs, keeping them close to your body and your back flat. Lower until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings or the dumbbells reach mid-shin level. Drive through your heels, squeeze your glutes, and extend your hips to return to a standing position. Keep the movement controlled throughout.
