stance. Squat down and grasp handles to each side. Stand upright
with arms straight down to sides.
Execution

until hamstrings are tight, or just before lower back bends.
Raise body upright by extending hips until standing. Pull shoulders
back slightly at top of lift if rounded. Repeat.

pause or bounce at bottom of lift. Do not lower weight beyond
