How to do it

  1. Take a barbell from the rack onto your upper back, step back and bend your knees slightly.
  2. Keep your back straight and hinge forward at the hips, pushing them back.
  3. Lower until you feel a stretch in the back of your thighs or your body is nearly level.
  4. Push your hips forward to stand back up.

Beginner tip: Start with an empty bar and only lean as far as your back stays flat.
