Coach's Tips

It’s a lower body movement using your hamstrings and glutes.

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the EZ bar in front of your thighs.

2. Keep your knees slightly bent.

1. Push your hips back and slowly bend your upper body forward.

2. Control the bar to come down to about the middle of your shins.

3. Stop at the point where you feel a stretch in your hamstrings, and rise using the strength of your hips and the back of your thighs.

4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Inhale when you bend down, and exhale when you stand up.

1. Maintain spinal neutrality to avoid rounding your back.

2. Do not lock your knees; keep them slightly soft.
