Front Squat Exercise Technique

Front Squats

Purpose of Exercise: To build mass and strength in all of the legs with primary emphasis on the outside sweep of the quadriceps (thigh).

Execution of Exercise: Front squat form, start with an olympic bar in a squat rack set at shoulder height. Step up to the bar so that it rests across your collar bone and lift up and out so that the barbell is free of the rack. Make sure to hold the bar with your hands crossed and elbows pointed forward and up for balance. With your feet about shoulder width apart and toes pointed slighty outwards descend under control until your thighbone is slightly below the level of your knee. A good way to ensure you always go below parallel is to go down until your hamstrings touch your calves.

Important Points: Always remember to keep your back tight and look up. Do not bounce in the bottom position and start off with a relatively light weight until your front squat technique is good.
