How to do it

  1. Take a barbell from the rack onto your upper back and stand with feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Step forward with one leg and lower until your back knee nearly touches the floor.
  3. Push through your front foot to rise, bringing your back leg forward into the next step.
  4. Keep walking and alternating legs until you finish the reps on each side.

Do all reps on one side, then switch.

Beginner tip: Try it without weight first and make sure you have clear space to walk.
