How to perform it
Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointing slightly outwards. Hold a barbell across your upper back, resting it on your shoulders. Take a big step to the side with your right foot, keeping your left foot planted. Bend your right knee and lower your body down into a squat position, keeping your chest up and your back straight. Push through your right heel to return to the starting position. Repeat on the other side, stepping out with your left foot. Continue alternating sides for the desired number of repetitions.
