Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Break at hips and knees simultaneously to initiate the descent.
  2. 2. Keep chest tall by driving elbows down on a goblet or front squat variation.
  3. 3. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
  4. 4. Neutral ribcage — avoid flaring ribs as you descend.

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:

Increase load with barbell, front squat, or add a pause at the bottom to remove elastic rebound.

Common Problems:

Bouncing out of the bottom — enforce a pause at the bottom to eliminate elastic rebound.
