Instructions:
- 1Stand in front of the counterweight bar, with your feet approximately shoulder-width apart.
- 2Grip the bar with both hands, palms facing forward.
- 3Slowly lower yourself into a squat as you inhale, keeping your back straight and ensuring your knees do not extend past your toes.
- 4Push up from your heels to a standing position as you exhale, squeezing your glutes.
- 5Repeat this movement for the required number of reps.
Tips:
- Keep your core engaged during the whole exercise.
- Let your squat be guided by the natural angle of your knees, everyone's squat depth is different.
- Always keep your heels on the ground, pushing up from your heels helps engage the targeted muscles more.
- Ensure not to arc or round your back during the exercise.
