    01 Hips back to reach them, chest up, back flat, dumbbells by the feet.

    Avoid: a round back at the bottom, worse when tired: the lower back pays.

  2. Push the floor away to stand tall, squeeze the glutes at the top.

    02 Push the floor away to stand tall, squeeze the glutes at the top.

    Avoid: leaning back at the top: the lower back gets crushed under the load.
