Day 6 Squat Challenge!

All right everyone, today is day 6, we call got caught up last night in class so you just need 6 today. Use this challenge as a means to perfect the air squat. Really work on getting the right depth and posture. If you struggle with the depth this is the perfect opportunity to work on it.

Break it up into sets small enough to allow proper form. (might not be as necessary early on as it will be later). This isn't a race, it is volume and practice.

Remember the basics, feet flat and drive through the heels, if it helps hold your toes up inside your shoes.  Keep your chest up and back arched (not rounded), keep your hands up high to help with this. Knees are out over the toes, not rolling to the inside, your femur should be in line with your foot. Sit back and down, get that butt back, and try to keep your knees from tracking too far out past the toes.

Take your time and do it right.
