Key Teaching Points:

  1. 1. Depth before load — achieve full range with bodyweight before adding resistance.
  2. 2. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
  3. 3. Rebound out of the bottom with hip drive, not by leaning the chest forward.
  4. 4. Neutral ribcage — avoid flaring ribs as you descend.

Regression:

Assisted squat using TRX or a doorframe to offload bodyweight while practising full range.

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.
