Squat

The squat is a fundamental movement pattern that is incredible for mobility and fantastic for building muscle mass and strength.

To squat optimally:

  • Assume a stance right around hip width with feet slightly turned out
  • Think "long spine" throughout the movement regardless of what position you're in
  • Pull yourself straight down with your hip flexors as if sitting on a curb as your knees push out.
  • Brace with your breathe and stand up tall 
  • Be sure to squeeze your glutes, quads and abs at the top with tall posture

We will focus on the Goblet Squat and Front Squat. 

Besides squatting, because you should, done as I describe, these squats will light up your abs like a Christmas tree!
