Floor Based

Focus

Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
  2. 2. Finish with full hip extension and a deliberate glute squeeze at the top.
  3. 3. Drive the floor away on the concentric — think push, not pull.
  4. 4. Soft knee bend throughout — this is a hip-dominant, not knee-dominant, pattern.

Regression:

Use a bodyweight hip hinge against the wall — stand a foot away, push hips back until they touch, then return — to learn the pattern without load.

Progression:

Introduce a pause at the bottom for 2 seconds to eliminate elastic rebound and increase time under tension.

Common Problems:

Rising onto the toes during the hinge — reinforce flat foot contact and hip push-back before knee bend.
