Tutorial

1

Put a barbell in the holder and put weight on the other end of the barbell. Stand shoulder-width apart in front of the barbell.
2

Grasp the end of the barbell with both hands and hold it in front of your left shoulder. Lean your body slightly forward.
3

Powerfully push the barbell upwards away from your left shoulder with both arms until your arms are fully extended and centered in front of your body. Breathe out as you do this.
4

Slowly bring the barbell back to your right shoulder in a controlled manner. Breathe in as you do so.
5

One repetition from left to right has now been completed. Then repeat this process from right to left until you have completed the specified number of repetitions in both directions.

Tip

The further you stand from the bar, the harder the exercise becomes. Keep your back straight and your elbows close to your body. Also try to consciously engage your shoulder muscles and push less from your chest. Make sure that your wrists are not bent and are in line with your forearm.
