How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Suspend both ends of a lightly loaded barbell from rated chains or straps in a power rack so the bar is level at your chosen bottom good-morning height.
  2. 02Duck beneath the stationary bar, secure it across the rear shoulders in a low-bar position, set your feet, soften your knees, and brace with a neutral spine.
  3. 03From the dead stop, drive your hips forward and extend through the glutes and hamstrings until you stand tall without overextending your lower back.
  4. 04Push your hips rearward and hinge forward under control, keeping the knees slightly bent and the bar balanced over your midfoot.
  5. 05Lower until the chains or straps fully support the bar, let it settle without bouncing, and rebuild your brace before beginning another repetition.
