How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Set the rack's safety pins at a hinge depth you can control and place the bar securely across the pins.
  2. 02Step under the bar, position it across your upper back, set your feet about hip-width apart, and brace before taking the load from the dead stop.
  3. 03Keep your spine neutral and drive your hips forward until you are standing tall with the bar balanced over your midfoot.
  4. 04Push your hips backward to hinge under control, keeping your knees slightly bent until the bar contacts both pins evenly.
  5. 05Let the bar settle fully on the pins, rebuild your brace without bouncing, and repeat from a dead stop.
