Dumbbell Front Squat

Hand Position: Grip DB’s and place on top of your shoulder, making sure the thumbs are pointed down and elbows are parallel to the ground.

Foot Position: Feet shoulder width; toes pointed forward or slightly pointed out.

Start Position: Start upright, squeezing the shoulder blades together and making sure your lower back is tight.

End Position: Push your hips back, keeping the weight through your heels. Make sure your back remains tight and you slowly bend until you are a least parallel (knees hip joint in line with knee joint). Once you reach that point, push through the heels, remaining upright, and return to the start position.
