Daily Exercise

Exercise: Today's exercise is for your lower back, and it's actually quite dangerous. It's called the Barbell Deadlift. If you perform this exercise right it can be your best friend, but if you do it wrong it can be your worst enemy. You only need a straight barbell.
 1. Stand in front of the loaded barbell.
 2. While keeping your back as straight as possible, bend your knees, bend forward and grasp the bar using a shoulder width overhand grip. This is your starting position.
 3. While holding the bar, start the lift by pushing with your legs while simultaneously getting your torso to the upright position. In the upright position, stick your chest out and contract the back by bringing your shoulder blades back. If you do not know what this mean think of how the soldiers in the military look when they are in standing in attention.
 4. Go back to the starting position by bending at the knees while simultaneously leaning your torso forward at the waist while keeping your back straight. When the weights on the bar touch the floor you are back at the starting position and ready to perform another rep.
 5. Repeat.
