Hahaha...I do that all the time. Thankfully my core is pretty strong so I can usually do it...with a lot of grunting of course.

When picking things up on the floor, keep one leg straight, and lift the other one behind you (also straight) while bending at the waist.

Kids make fun of me, but honestly little challenges like that add up over a long time.

That's a single leg body weight deadlift FWIW.

I knew there was a proper name for it, without the lengthy explanation.

Cheers!!
