Technique
- Stand with feet wide and hinge forward at the hips until your torso is close to parallel with the floor.
- Hold a light barbell underhand with a narrow grip, arms hanging straight below your shoulders.
- Curl the bar toward your chest while the upper arms stay vertical.
- Lower slowly until the arms are straight.
Cues
- Keep the back flat; a slight knee bend makes the hinge easier.

- Rounding the lower back.
