Barbell Squat

Description

  1. Pick up barbell safely and place on your upper back and shoulders (alternatively you can front rack the barbell bringing it to your collar bones)
  2. Feet slightly wider than hip width apart, core braced - this is your start position
  3. Hinge from the hips and bend at the knees as you lower your body towards the floor, maintaining a straight back throughout the movement
  4. Stop when your hip reaches knee height, thigh parallel to the floor - this is your end position
  5. Return to start position, repeat desired number of reps
