Start Position: The bar is resting on your shoulder blades and your feet shoulder width; toes pointed forward or slightly pointed out.
End Position: Begin by pushing your hips back and keep the weight through your heels. Continue to push your hips back and sit down until your thighs are at least parallel to ground and your knee joint is in line with your hip joint (feel free to go below parallel if you can keep your back tight and chest up). Once you reach the bottom of your squat, drive through your heels and explode up to the start position. Be sure that your chest is up and your back remains tight throughout the entire lift.
