Step-by-step
- Rest your upper back against a bench and position the bar over your hips (use a pad if needed).
- Plant your feet flat on the floor, bend your knees, and brace your core.
- Drive through your heels to push the bar up until your torso and thighs form a straight line.
- Squeeze your glutes hard at the top, then lower the bar under control.
Coaching tip
Fully squeeze your glutes at the top and don't overarch your lower back; keep your chin slightly tucked.
