Start with your feet shoulder-width apart and the barbell on the ground in front of you. Place your hands on the barbell with a wide grip, palms facing down. Engage your core and lift the barbell off the ground, keeping your arms straight. As the barbell reaches your hips, explosively pull it up towards your chest, keeping your elbows high and wide. As the barbell reaches chest height, quickly drop your body underneath it and catch it in a squat position, with your arms fully extended overhead. Stand up with the barbell and return it to the starting position on the ground. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Keep back straight and shoulders pulled back before lifting. Brace core and confirm position before the pull. Keep the bar close to your shins to reduce back strain. Avoid letting the bar drift forward to prevent rounding.
