Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Stand all the way up — lock hips out completely at the top of each rep.
  2. 2. Rebound out of the bottom with hip drive, not by leaning the chest forward.
  3. 3. Engage the core before initiating any movement.
  4. 4. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.

Regression:

Perform an air squat with a 3-second descent and pause at the bottom before adding any external load.

Progression:

Progress to a single-leg squat variation: Bulgarian split squat, pistol squat, or shrimp squat.

Common Problems:

Knees caving inward — cue active push out against the floor. Heel rise — widen stance or elevate heels slightly.
