1 - Stand with your feet significantly wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointed slightly outward, and the barbell resting across your upper traps in a high-bar back squat position.
2 - Brace your core, keep your chest tall, and shift your weight to one side by bending that knee deeply while keeping the opposite leg fully extended with the foot flat or heel raised.
3 - Lower your hips down toward the heel of the bent leg, keeping the knee tracking in line with your toes and your torso as upright as possible.
4 - Pause briefly at the bottom of the movement, ensuring your extended leg remains straight and your grounded foot stays fully in contact with the floor.
5 - Drive through the heel of the bent leg to push yourself back up to the starting wide-stance position.
6 - Repeat the movement to the opposite side, maintaining control and balance throughout the transition.
7 - Continue alternating sides for the desired number of repetitions.
