- 2. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 3. End range is where the real work happens — do not shy away from it.
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.
