    National Academy of Sports Medicine answered:
    Stand with your pointed straight ahead and placed shoulder width apart.  Hold a barbell across your shoulders being careful not to jut your head forward or backward.  Quickly squat, pressing through your heels keeping your feet straight and chest up.  Contract your glutes and quickly rise to full extension.  Do not arch your back or jut your head forward.  Repeat the exercise quickly.
