1 - Begin by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and the barbell on the floor in front of you.
2 - Position your hands on the barbell with a wide overhand grip, placing your hands slightly wider than your shoulders.
3 - Engage your core and keep your back straight as you hinge at your hips, bending your knees slightly and gripping the bar.
4 - Lift the barbell off the floor, driving through your heels and keeping your back straight and chest up.
5 - As you lift the bar, keep it close to your shins and maintain a straight back.
6 - Continue to lift the bar until you are standing upright with the barbell at hip height.
7 - Lower the bar back down to the starting position by reversing the movements you used to lift it, keeping your back straight and chest up throughout the movement.
8 - Repeat for your desired number of repetitions.
