Before you start

Clear enough floor space to squat without contacting a bench or wall.
- 02
Hold one weight close to the chest with both hands.
- 03
Use a stance that lets the heels stay grounded.
One useful cue
Keep the first rep repeatable.
Keep the heels grounded and let the knees track in the same direction as the toes.
Training use
Purpose before prescription.
This is a general strength builder used to support repeated squatting and bracing.
