Starting Position: Lay a long barbell on the ground and straddle it with your feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart. Grab the barbell with both hands below the weight, lifting it to mid-shin level, bending over so your back is at a 45 degree angle to the floor.

  1. 1 Exhaling, raise the weight up to your stomach, bending your elbows straight back and keeping them close to your sides. Pinch your shoulder blades together the entire time.
  2. 2 Inhale and slowly lower the weight back down to starting position, making sure it does not touch the ground.
  3. 3 Repeat this exercise until you have completed all repetitions for the set, then switch arms and repeat motions.
