Keep your torso still, while exhaling, pull the barbell towards you, bending your elbows. Keep the elbows close to the body, the weight should be supported by the forearms. At the end of the movement, tighten your back muscles and hold this position for a few seconds. While inhaling, slowly lower the bar to the starting position. Complete the required number of repetitions. Attention: refrain from doing this exercise if you have problems with your back or lower back. Make sure that your back is arched at the waist throughout the entire exercise, otherwise you can injure your back. If you have any doubts about the chosen weight, it is better to take less than more weight. Variations: You can also do this exercise using a supinated grip (palms facing you).
