Stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart. Load the barbell with weights at one end and place the empty end on the floor behind you. You straddle the bar so that it is between your legs. Hold the barbell with your right hand close to the weighted end and 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 chest with your right hand. Your upper arm should be parallel with your back at the finish of the movement. Hold for a second at the top, feeling the lift from the right side lats and traps (not the shoulder and arm). Exhale during this movement. Lower the weight slowly to the starting position. Inhale during this movement. Repeat for the required number of repetitions. Grasp the barbell with your left hand and repeat the movements using your left arm. Repeat for the required number of repetitions.
