Grasp a barbell at shoulder width, with your fingers over the bar, thumb underneath.
Lifting the bar safely off the floor (bent knees - straight back), stand upright with your shoulders pulled back, bar close to your upper thighs, forearms resting on your body.
Smoothly lift the bar by turning your hands upwards, the movement will only be a few inches, however focus on keeping your forearms tucked into your body throughout.
