HOW TO PERFORM THE PERFECT SQUAT

#Africa ... spill TEA.... Easy on Shade #jaiyeorie





1️⃣ Stance: place feel roughly shoulder width apart with your feet pointed out slightly. I personally feel uncomfortable when my feet are completely pointed straight.

2️⃣ Posture (spine neutrality): you must ensure your back remains straight at all time, avoid any curves and arching, you do not want to go into flexion!

3️⃣Keep your core engaged: make sure you keep your core tight and embraced whilst you conduct the movement. Your chest needs to be lifted as well.

TIPS: - hard soled shoes are great for squatting. - When squatting down imagine you are sitting on an imaginary chair - If you are using a barbell start with 10 Practice reps just with the bar.

- Try to achieve depth and make sure you drive your hips forward when you come back up whilst squeezing your glutes BUT if you are lifting a very heavy weight be careful when doing this as it could be difficult you must remember to keep your hips in position so don’t go crazy crazy with the squeezing!
