Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
- 2. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
- 3. Keep chest tall by driving elbows down on a goblet or front squat variation.
- 4. Depth before load — achieve full range with bodyweight before adding resistance.
Regression:
Assisted squat using TRX or a doorframe to offload bodyweight while practising full range.
Progression:
Add a tempo — 4-second descent, 2-second pause, 1-second up — to extend time under tension.
Common Problems:
Bouncing out of the bottom — enforce a pause at the bottom to eliminate elastic rebound.
