Barbell Front Chest Squat

Place a barbell across the front of your shoulders in a front rack position with elbows lifted high. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, brace your core, and keep your chest upright. Lower your body by bending your hips and knees at the same time until your thighs reach at least parallel to the floor. Pause briefly, then drive through your heels to return to standing while keeping your torso tall and elbows up throughout the movement.
