SETUP: Bar at Shoulders/Rack Position. Stand with feet shoulder width apart, bar racked at the shoulders (create a shelf for the bar to sit on) hands outside shoulders, elbows high, upper arms parallel to the ground.

Execution

• Bend at your hips and sit back into the squat.
• Keep a good lumbar curve.
• Keep your elbows high.
• Keep the chest lifted.
• Knees track with the toes.
• Weight in the heels.
• You should always aim to squat to just below parallel, meaning your hip joint needs to come just below your knee.
