START

FINISH

1. To begin, first set the bar on a rack that best matches your height. Once the correct height is

chosen and the bar is loaded, step under the bar and place the back of your shoulders

(slightly below the neck) across it.

2. Hold on to the bar using both arms at each side and lift it off the rack by first pushing with your

legs and at the same time straightening your torso.

3. Step away from the rack and position your legs using a shoulder width medium stance with

the toes slightly pointed out. Your back should be kept straight while performing this exercise.

This will be your starting position.

4. Elevate the barbell overhead by fully extending your arms while breathing out.

5. Hold the contraction for a second and lower the barbell back down to the starting position by

inhaling.

6. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Caution: Performing this exercise can cause serious injury if not performed properly. Make sure to keep your back straight when lowering and lifting the barbell.
