How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Suspend matching light weights from both ends of a barbell with equal resistance bands and verify that every attachment is secure.
  2. 02Press or receive the bar overhead with your elbows locked, shoulders active, and ribs stacked over your pelvis.
  3. 03Walk forward using short, quiet steps while the suspended weights create small oscillations.
  4. 04Keep the bar centered and resist leaning, twisting, or making sudden corrections as the loads move.
  5. 05Stop before your overhead position deteriorates, stabilize the bar completely, and lower it to a rack with appropriate assistance.
