How to do it
Execution:
  1. 1
    Stand with the Smith bar in front of your body, arms straight.
  2. 2
    Keep your torso upright and shoulders relaxed at the start.
  3. 3
    Shrug your shoulders straight up to the top and pause briefly.
  4. 4
    Lower under control.
Tip: the Smith removes bar sway — focus on pure vertical travel of the shoulders.
