Attach a straight bar to a high pulley cable machine. Stand facing the machine with your feet shoulder-width apart and a slight bend in your knees. Grasp the bar with an overhand grip, keeping your arms straight and your palms facing down. Engage your core and keep your back straight as you exhale and push the bar down towards your thighs. Pause for a moment at the bottom, then slowly return the bar to the starting position while inhaling. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
