Key Teaching Points:

- 2. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
- 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
Regression:
Perform an air squat with a 3-second descent and pause at the bottom before adding any external load.
Progression:
Load the pattern with an uneven implement (single kettlebell, offset barbell) to increase lateral stability demand.
Common Problems:
Not reaching full depth — address hip mobility or add a heel elevation to allow full range without compensation.
