Front Barbell Squat To A Bench

Adding a bench provides a consistent reference point to help you learn depth and control in the front squat. This variation encourages perfect posture and solid mechanics.

Instructions

1. Set a flat bench behind you and load a barbell onto your shoulders using a front rack position.
2. Cross your arms over the bar or use a clean grip, keeping your elbows high and chest up.
3. Step away from the rack and place your feet shoulder-width apart with toes pointed slightly out.
4. Squat down under control until your glutes lightly touch the bench.
5. Drive through your heels to return to the top, maintaining an upright torso throughout.
