How to do it

Stand to the side of a barbell next to its center. Bend your knees and lower your body until you are able to reach the barbell.

Slowly bring the barbell back down while inhaling. Tip: Make sure to bend your knees while lowering the weight to avoid any injury from occurring.

Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
