Atlas Stones
The Atlas Stones is a strongman movement that targets your lower back. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Atlas Stones
- Straddle the stone with feet outside hip-width, hips low, chest pressed into the stone.
- Lock your arms around the stone and drive your legs to pull it into your lap.
- Extend your hips and lean back to load the stone onto the platform.
- Keep your lower back braced and neutral throughout — never allow it to round under the stone.
