Barbell Squat


How to perform this exercise

Starting Position:
  • Begin by grasping the bar in a closed grip with palms facing forward with hand positioning ranging from slightly wider than shoulder width to very wide.
  • Step under the bar and position the feet parallel to one another and balance the bar across the top of the back.
  • Once situated, lift the bar off the rack and straighten the legs
    Keep the chest out and up.
  • Take a few steps back and position the feet about shoulder width apart with the toes angled out just a bit.

Movement:
  • Inhale deeply and begin lowering the bar by flexing at the hips and knees.
  • Be sure to tilt the hips so that your butt is back as if to take a seat
  • Keep the back tight and straight with the weight resting firmly on the middle and heels of the feet.
  • Lower until comfortable or until the tops of the thighs are parallel.
  • Once complete, slowly change directions by recruiting the hips and the knees in order to return to staring position.

Key Points:
  • Remember to exhale firmly on the way back up.
  • When done, carefully walk the bar back into the rack.
