Contraindications:
None
Equipment:
Floor Based, High Bands
Applicability:
Group
Superset?:
Yes
Sprint-able?:

Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Set feet at shoulder-width or wider with toes turned out to your natural angle.
  2. 2. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
  3. 3. Take air in at the top, brace, descend; exhale on the way up through the sticking point.

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:

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

Common Problems:

Chest collapsing forward at depth — reinforce upright torso cue and reduce load until the position is owned.
