Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 2. Create rotational torque by screwing feet into the floor — activates glutes before the movement begins.
- 3. Stand all the way up — lock hips out completely at the top of each rep.
Regression:
Box squat to a high surface to reduce depth and build confidence. Use bodyweight only until full range is achieved with neutral spine.
Progression:
Load the pattern with an uneven implement (single kettlebell, offset barbell) to increase lateral stability demand.
Common Problems:
Chest collapsing forward at depth — reinforce upright torso cue and reduce load until the position is owned.
