Place the loaded barbell on your back across your traps and shoulders and spread your legs wide while standing up. Get ready for the initial squat. This is your starting position.
Squat down all the way until your legs are past a 90-degree angle. Your back should be straight at all times. Once down, push back up with your legs as strong as you can and get back into the standing position.
Finally, repeat the entire movement for the desired or prescribed number of repetitions.
