How to perform it
Step-by-step instructions
- 01Stand in a comfortable squat stance with your arms relaxed and feet fully planted.
- 02Brace lightly and descend to the deepest squat you can control without the heels lifting or the trunk collapsing.
- 03Drive through the whole feet to stand while sweeping both arms overhead.
- 04Finish tall with elbows straight and ribs stacked over the pelvis; the arms are reaching, not pressing an external load.
- 05Lower the arms, reset the stance, and repeat with the same controlled depth.
