- Lower Squat, Total Hang
- Contraindications:
- None
- Equipment:
- Floor Based
- Applicability:
- Group
- Superset?:
- Yes
- Sprint-able?:
- No
Key Teaching Points:
- 1. Breathe consistently — match breathing to movement rhythm.
- 2. Full foot contact with the floor — heel, arch, and ball stay grounded.
- 3. Create rotational torque by screwing feet into the floor — activates glutes before the movement begins.
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:
Load the pattern with an uneven implement (single kettlebell, offset barbell) to increase lateral stability demand.
Common Problems:
Not reaching full depth — address hip mobility or add a heel elevation to allow full range without compensation.
