Form Cues

  • Stand facing the barbell end, grip it with both hands and hold it at arm's length in front of your chest

  • Stand with feet slightly wider than shoulder width for a stable base

  • Keep your arms extended (slight bend is fine) throughout the movement

  • Rotate the barbell from one side to the other in a controlled arc

  • The rotation should come from your core and obliques — your hips can rotate slightly but shouldn't drive the movement

  • Keep your chest up and back straight, don't let the torso collapse forward

  • Control both directions — the eccentric (returning) phase is just as important

  • Breathe out during the rotation, breathe in as you return to center
