01
HOW TO PERFORM IT
Make every rep comparable.
SetupStand with the bar close to your thighs, feet around hip width and knees slightly bent. Brace your trunk before beginning the hinge.
ExecutionPush your hips backward while keeping the bar close to your legs. Descend only as far as you can maintain control and a stable torso, then drive the hips forward to return to standing.
Key cueSend the hips back while keeping the bar close.
02
WHAT TO TRACK
Record more than the weight.
Track load and repetitions, but also keep your range of motion and tempo consistent so the numbers remain comparable.
03
HOW TO PROGRESS
Change one useful variable at a time.
Increase repetitions or load only while maintaining a controlled hinge, stable trunk and consistent range of motion.
