- Equipment:

Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Break at hips and knees simultaneously to initiate the descent.
- 2. Establish a stable base before adding any dynamic component.
- 3. Rebound out of the bottom with hip drive, not by leaning the chest forward.
- 4. Quality of movement always takes priority over speed or load.
Regression:
Goblet squat with a light counterweight to reinforce an upright torso and depth simultaneously.
Progression:
Progress to a single-leg squat variation: Bulgarian split squat, pistol squat, or shrimp squat.
Common Problems:
Knees caving inward — cue active push out against the floor. Heel rise — widen stance or elevate heels slightly.
