Commence the exercise with your arms straight, with the weight close to your legs, a few inches off the floor, maintaining a straight back throughout.
Smoothly lift the weight up to your lower chest, aiming to keep your elbows high, focusing on pulling your shoulder blades together.
Lower down under control, however keep the weight off the floor in order to keep your back muscles contracted to maximize exercise benefit.
Repeat for desired amount of reps. This exercise can be performed using a normal or close grip position.
