Instructions
1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent.
2. Bend at your hips to lower your torso until it's almost parallel to the floor, keeping your back straight.
3. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip (palms facing down), hands wider than shoulder-width apart.
4. Let the barbell hang at arm's length in front of you.
5. Squeeze your shoulder blades together, and then pull the bar towards your lower chest.
6. Pause briefly when the bar is at chest height, then slowly lower it back to the starting position.
7. Ensure that during the movement, your torso remains stationary, and you pull from your elbows, not just using your biceps.
8. Complete the desired number of repetitions and sets.
Remember to keep your core engaged during the exercise to support your lower back and avoid rounding your spine. Adjust the weight to ensure proper form throughout the workout.
