Form Cues

  1. 1

    Hold the end of the barbell with both hands, hinge at the hips pushing them back, feel the hamstring stretch at the bottom

  2. 2

    Drive hips forward to return to standing, squeezing glutes at the top

  3. 3

    Keep a soft, fixed bend in the knees — the movement comes from the hips

  4. 4

    Keep the bar close to your legs throughout the hinge

Common Mistakes

  • ●

    Rounding the lower back at the bottom — maintain a neutral spine throughout the entire movement

  • ●

    Squatting the weight down instead of hinging at the hips

  • ●

    Letting the bar drift away from your legs, turning it into a lower-back exercise
