Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Full foot contact with the floor — heel, arch, and ball stay grounded.
- 2. Break at hips and knees simultaneously to initiate the descent.
- 3. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
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:
Chest collapsing forward at depth — reinforce upright torso cue and reduce load until the position is owned.
