Bend at the hips and knees to reach the bar
Grip the bar just outside your legs
Keep your back flat and chest up
Pull your shoulders back and down
Brace your core
Keep the bar close to your shins
Push through your feet to lift the bar
Extend your hips and knees at the same time
Stand tall at the top with hips fully extended
Do not lean back at the top
Lower the bar by hinging at the hips first
Bend your knees once the bar passes them
Set the bar back on the floor with control
Repeat with proper form
