Deadlift a barbell with a flat back
-
Walk to the bar, shins close.
Bar over mid-foot, about an inch from the shins. Feet hip-width, toes slightly out.
-
Hinge and grip just outside the legs.
Hips back, hands outside the shins, arms vertical from the front.
-
Wedge: chest up, slack out.
Pull the bar taut, drop the hips until the shins touch the bar, lats on. You should feel spring-loaded.
-
Push the floor, bar against the legs.
Stand in one piece. The bar drags up the shins and thighs; daylight between bar and body is leaked force.
-
Lock out, then hinge it home.
Hips through, tall finish, no lean-back. Return along the same path, hips back first.

#1 becomes the Core. This atoma is young: submit a better distillation and take the seat.
No gear needed. Your pot, a timer and ice are enough. That is the point.
