Positioning:
- Stand with feet hip width apart. Knees inline with the second toe and maintain neutral hips.
- Spine should remain neutral and ears are inline with the shoulders.
How to Do:
- Take the load in a safe lifting position and lift.
- Once you have lifted, step one step forward from the machine.
- Lift in alternate fashion.
- Glutes and core should be engaged during this exercise.
- Continue to maintain correct posture during the alternate lifts and elbows stay inline with the body.
