Steps

1. 1. Stand up straight with your feet shoulder width apart. Grip the barbell with an overhand grip (palms facing towards your body). Don't drop your shoulders. Even in this starting position the bar should be inline with the bottom of your hip bone.
2. 2. Next, raise the bar towards your chin. Focus on contracting from your shoulders and traps. Raise the bar to just above your collar bone. Hold this position for a moment then slowly lower the bar back to its original position.
