Instructions

Place two small powerbands around a barbell and load the desired weight on to the bar. Place your feet inside the bands and stand on them with your feet hip-width apart. Reach down and grasp hold of the bar with an overhand grip, with your arms close to your legs.

Sit your hips back, lift your chest and retract your shoulders, and raise your gaze so you're looking in front of you. Keeping your core engaged, stand up tall by straightening your knees and pushing your hips forward. Squeeze your glutes at the top of the movement before lowering the bar back down with control.
