Cable Squat

How to Cable Squat

Starting Position

1. Stand in front of the cable machine and grab the handles with both hands.

2. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, and your body should be positioned as if being slightly pulled by the cable.

3. Keep your arms slightly bent and positioned in front of your chest.

Proper Form

1. Send your hips back and bend your knees to lower into a squat position.

2. Stop when your thighs are close to parallel with the floor.

3. Push through your heels to rise back up.

4. Maintain tension in your core to prevent the cable from pulling your body forward.

Breathing Technique

Breathe in while going down, and breathe out while coming up.

Precautions

1. Please adjust to a suitable distance as standing too close to the cable may cause discomfort in movement.

2. Keep your chest open and your gaze forward to avoid bending your waist.

3. Focus on 'maintaining posture' rather than the weight.
