1 - Start with your feet hip-width apart, toes pointing slightly outward. Bend at your hips and knees to grasp the barbell with a wide overhand grip (wider than shoulder-width).
2 - Begin the lift by extending your hips and knees while keeping your back straight. Keep the barbell close to your body as it moves upward.
3 - As the barbell passes your knees, explosively extend your hips and knees. Simultaneously, shrug your shoulders and pull the barbell upward.
4 - Continue pulling the barbell overhead, allowing your body to drop into a full squat position as you do so. Catch the barbell overhead with your arms fully extended, elbows locked, and your body in a deep squat position.
5 - From the deep squat position, stand up while keeping the barbell overhead.
6 - Carefully lower the barbell to the ground to complete the repetition.
