Make every rep count.
- 01
Set the bar in a rack just below shoulder height and place the safety pins just above hip level.
- 02
Grip the bar evenly, step under it, and rest it firmly on your upper traps (or slightly lower on the rear delts for a low-bar style). Brace your core and stand tall.
- 03
Start the rep by slightly bending your knees, then hinge at the hips—push your hips back while keeping a neutral spine and your chest proud. Keep the bar tight to your back and your weight balanced over the midfoot.
- 04
Lower until your torso is near parallel to the floor (or as far as your hamstring flexibility allows without rounding your back).
- 05
Stand up by driving through your whole foot and extending your hips, returning to a strong, upright position.
- 06
Repeat for your target reps, keeping each rep controlled and consistent.
