Barbell Thruster
How to do it
- 1The barbell thruster is a compound exercise that combines a front squat with an overhead press, targeting the shoulders and engaging multiple muscle groups for strength and power.
Coaching cues
- Start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a barbell at shoulder height with an overhand grip.
- Lower into a squat position by bending your knees and pushing your hips back.
- As you reach the bottom of the squat, explosively drive through your heels to stand up, simultaneously pressing the barbell overhead.
- Lower the barbell back to shoulder height as you lower back into the squat position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
