Instructions
Set up a barbell on the floor and stand facing it with your legs slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and your knees slightly bent.
Bend forward at your waist and grip the barbell with an overhand grip.
Keep your back straight and nearly parallel to the floor.
Keep your head and neck straight. This is the start position.
Without moving your torso, exhale and lift the barbell up towards you from the floor.
Keep your elbows close to your body and use your forearms to support the weight.
At the top of the movement, hold for a count of one and squeeze your back muscles.
Return the barbell back to the floor as the start position, inhaling as you do so.
