Begin your squat with a setup; standing fully upright with your feet shoulder-width apart. Next, when performing a full squat movement, go through the checklist below:
- Put your weight on your heels.
- Maintain a gentle curve in the lower back.
- Keep your chest up and open as your butt travels back and down.
- Bottom of squat is when your hip is below or parallel to your kneecaps.
- Knees stay parallel to feet.
- Return to an upright standing position to complete the move.
- Remember to keep your head in a neutral position during the entire movement.
