01
Stand with your feet about hip-width apart, keep your back straight, and lift with your legs and hips. Don't let your back round.
02
Do some warm-up exercises and stretch your hips, hamstrings, and lower back to get ready for the lift.
03
Start with a light weight to get the hang of the move, and only add more weight as you get comfortable.
04
Brace your stomach muscles to keep your back safe and stable while lifting.
05
Choose flat, stable shoes for better balance. Use lifting straps or a belt if you’re lifting heavy, but focus on good technique first.
06
Give your muscles time to rest between workouts to avoid overdoing it and getting hurt.
