- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, barbell over midfoot. Grip the bar wide with an overhand grip, chest up, and back straight.
- Lift the bar by driving through your legs, keeping it close to your body. Extend your hips and knees while maintaining a straight back.
- Explosively extend your hips, knees, and ankles while shrugging your shoulders. Pull yourself under the bar as it moves upward.
- Drop into a deep squat while locking the bar overhead. Stabilize, then stand up fully to complete the lift.
