Instructions

  1. Step 1: Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and the barbell resting on your upper chest, with your elbows pointing forward.

  2. Step 2: Lower your body by bending your knees and pushing your hips back, as if you are sitting back into a chair.

  3. Step 3: Keep your chest up and your back straight as you lower down, making sure your knees do not go past your toes.

  4. Step 4: Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go.

  5. Step 5: Pause for a moment at the bottom, then push through your heels to stand back up, extending your hips and knees.

  6. Step 6: Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
