Step-by-step
- Grip the bar at shoulder width with your palms facing you (underhand grip) and sit down under the thigh pad.
- Keep your chest up, pull your shoulders slightly back, and lean your torso back just a little.
- Pull your elbows down and back to bring the bar toward your upper chest.
- Squeeze your back muscles, pause briefly, then let the bar rise back up under control.
- Continue your reps while maintaining tension once your arms are fully extended.
Coaching tip
Palms facing you; pull your elbows close to your body and feel the lower lats.
