You can either hold the bar with an overhand or have one overhand and one underhand grip, whichever you prefer. Grab the bar, push you hips back to the point where you feel tension in your hamstrings. Brace your abs, retract your shoulder and keep a nice straight back and drive the hips up, keeping the bar close to your body throughout the whole movement.When you come into standing position, squeeze your glutes. Then, keeping the bar close to your body return back to starting position. Do 3 sets with 8 reps.
