How to do it

Steps :

1.) Start by setting up a barbell with the amount of weight that you would like to perform for this exercise and placing it on your shoulder blades just as if you were to be performing a squat.

2.) Place your hands in a shoulder width overhand grip and keep your knees slightly bent.

3.) Slowly lower and squat yourself down towards the ground about 6 to 12 inches and hold for a count.

4.) Return back to the starting position.

5.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
