How to do it

Secure one end of the barbell in a stable corner. Stand facing its free end and hold it with both hands in front of your chest. Sweep the bar in an arc from side to side, turning your hips and pivoting your feet rather than twisting through a planted lower back.

Form cues

  • Pivot your feet with the turn.
  • Control the bar through the entire arc.
