About

It is a workout that can give strong target to the muscles in front of your thighs with the barbell on your front shoulder!

How to Front Squat

Starting Position

1. Please place the barbell at shoulder height.

2. Place the barbell on your shoulders and cross your hands to grip the barbell.

3. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart and your toes turned out at about 20-30 degrees.

4. Keep your chest up and your back straight.

Proper Form

1. Tighten your abdomen and keep your waist straight, then bend at the hip to lower your buttocks down.

2. Allow your knees to bend naturally until your thighs are parallel to the ground.

3. Push strongly through the center of your feet to rise up.

4. As your buttocks rise, straighten your knees and hips in sequence, returning to the starting position.

Breathing Technique

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

Precautions

1. Please be careful not to lean your upper body too far forward.

2. Keep your chest up and engage your core to avoid bending your back.

3. Don't excessively arch your back while trying to keep it straight.

4. Please do not stick your hips too far back.

5. Make sure your feet do not come off the ground.

6. When standing up, please ensure your knees do not come together.
