How to do it

  1. Prepare your barbell and stand in front of it.
  2. Position your feet underneath the barbell. As you look down, it should seem like the barbell is cutting your feet in half.
  3. Have your feet at hip-width distance and toes pointing slightly out.
  4. Bend down and grab the barbell with an even overhand grip. Maintain a slight bend in your knees.
  5. Squeeze your shoulder blades to bring your chest out and straighten your back.
  6. Engage your abs and take a breath.
  7. Pull the barbell in a straight vertical line.
  8. Lift the weight and drive your hips forward at the top. Don’t hyperextend your lower back as you finish the repetition.
