Front squat
Bar rests on the front of the shoulders, elbows high, feet about shoulder-width, toes slightly out.
- 1Sit down between the heels. The knees track over the toes.
- 2Keep the elbows up so the bar doesn't roll. The torso stays tall.
- 3Stand by driving the whole foot down. Heels stay planted.
Easy to miss: Elbows dropping so the bar falls, or the heels lifting at the bottom.
