Steps
- 1 Stand tall with your feet hip-width apart, holding a barbell with a wide overhand grip, arms extended down in front of you.
- 2 Slightly bend your knees and hinge at your hips, keeping your back straight and the bar close to your body.
- 3 Explosively drive through your heels and balls of your feet, extending your hips and knees as if jumping upwards.
- 4 As you reach full extension and the bar travels upwards, actively shrug your shoulders towards your ears.
- 5 Allow the bar to descend under control as you absorb the landing by bending your knees and hips, returning to the starting position.
