Recommendations: 2-3 Sets, 6-10 Reps, 80 Wght
Stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart. Hold the barbell with an underhand grip (palms facing forward), hands wider than shoulder-width apart. Bend over while facing forward (not down) with your knees slightly bent until your upper body is parallel to the floor. Let the bar hang down and you feel the stretch in the lats. This is the starting position. Lift the weight straight up toward your waist. Your elbows rise until your upper arms are parallel with your back. Hold for a second at the top, feeling the lift from the lats and the traps (not the shoulders and arms) and squeeze the scapula together. Exhale during this movement. Lower the weight slowly to the starting position. Inhale during this movement. Repeat for the required number of repetitions.
