Front Barbell Squat

The front squat is a strength training staple. Its upright position and forward load demand excellent technique, making it a reliable choice for improving posture, core control, and quad strength.

Instructions

1. Rest the barbell on your front shoulders with elbows high and arms crossed or in a clean grip.
2. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and toes slightly outward.
3. Squat down under control until your thighs are below parallel or as deep as mobility allows.
4. Keep your chest tall and spine neutral throughout the movement.
5. Drive through your midfoot and return to standing.
