Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a barbell with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. Let the barbell hang in front of your thighs, arms fully extended. Keeping your back straight and core engaged, exhale and lift the barbell straight up towards your chin, leading with your elbows. Pause for a moment at the top, then inhale and slowly lower the barbell back down to the starting position. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
