Starting Position: Stand with your side toward the end of the barbell with feet at a hip-width distance. Hold the end of the bar with the closest hand and come to a standing position.
Procedure: Maintaining a flat back, hinge at the waist by pushing the hips back and lowering the chest until the weights are below the knees. Return to standing, pushing your feet through the ground and thrusting the hips forward by contracting the hamstrings and glutes. Complete the prescribed repetitions before repeating on the opposite side.
Coaching Key: Engage the shoulder to prevent the weight from pulling them forward, causing your back to round. Keep the weight close to your body throughout the movement. Push your feet through the ground.
Feel it: Working your glutes, hamstrings, and lower back.
