Step 1: Set the rack and Barbell to height below your shoulders in a standing position.
Step 2: Set the Safety Bars if they are available. Utilize these bars to gage your squat depth.
Step 3: Set-up by placing yours hands onto the bar in an outside shoulder position.
Step 4: Un-rack the Barbell and step out, position your feet a 1/2 inch or 1 inch outside your shoulders.
Step 5: Engage your posterior chain, engage abdomen, and get those elbows up!
Step 6: Lower into your squat (depth should vary between individuals due to personal mobility and height).
*If you find it challenging to gain adequate depth? Try elevating your heels by a ½ or 1 inch thick plate or rubber mat. This method is utilized when individuals lack adequate ankle flexion.
