Exercise Types:
Lower Hinge, Total Quadruped
Contraindications:
Lower Back Problems, Wrist Problems
Equipment:
Floor Based
Applicability:
Group&Focus
Superset?:
No
Sprint-able?:
No

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Drive the floor away on the concentric — think push, not pull.
  2. 2. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
  3. 3. Finish with full hip extension and a deliberate glute squeeze at the top.
  4. 4. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.

Regression:

Slow the eccentric to a 4-count descent to reinforce hamstring loading and spine position before adding intensity.

Progression:

Add load via barbell, trap bar, or kettlebell. Progress to a single-leg variation to increase instability and unilateral demand.

Common Problems:

Hyperextending at the top — cue rib cage down and glute squeeze rather than a backward lean.
