How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Secure the bar across your upper back, stand with your feet about hip-width apart, and keep your weight balanced over your midfoot.
  2. 02Brace your trunk, unlock your knees slightly, and begin pushing your hips backward.
  3. 03Hinge forward at the hips while keeping your spine neutral and the bar fixed against your upper back.
  4. 04Stop when you feel a strong hamstring stretch or before your back begins to round; the exact depth will depend on your mobility.
  5. 05Drive your hips forward to return to a tall standing position without turning the movement into a squat.
