With the bar racked at just above knee height, grip the bar at just wider than shoulder width with an overhand grip. Lift up the bar and take a couple of steps back. Position your feet hip width apart, pointing them slightly outwards and have a soft bend in the knees.

Start by pushing your hips back, to hinge forward, keeping your back straight and chest out. Hinge downwards until you feel a stretch in the hamstrings. Hold briefly, then push the hips forward, squeezing your glutes to hinge back to the starting position. The bar should follow a straight line close to the front of your shins when performing the movement. Activate your core and have your shoulders square to keep a straight back throughout the exercise. Repeat for the desired amount of repetitions.

Avoid rounding the back or bending the knees forward.
