Instructions

Place a barbell on a rack at approximately shoulder height. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip that is slightly wider than shoulder width and step back from the rack. Bracing your glutes and core, press the bar upwards until your arms are extended straight over head, as the bar approaches your nose height, push your glutes back to help power the bar up. Lower the bar back to the starting position to repeat.

Tips

When your arms are fully extended, the bar should be inline with your ears. Be careful not to hyperextend your back when performing this exercise.
