Barbell Zercher Squat
Begin by standing with your feet about hip-width apart and holding a barbell in the crook of your arms, near your belly. Your palms should be facing towards your body. Sit back and lower your body down until your thighs are parallel to the ground, keeping your back straight and your core engaged. Push through your heels to extend your hips and stand back up to the starting position.
