Close Stance Squats

Legs, Quads, Glutes

- Start with your feet close together with our toes facing forward or slightly outward
- We want our knees to stay in line with our toes for the entirety of the exercise.
- Most of the pressure should be on our heels or mid foot, and we want to focus on pushing through our heels to activate our glutes on the way up. Do not push from the balls of your feet or toes.
- Keep a straight back and engaged core. Do not hunch forward or arch your back. By keeping our gaze forward, we can help prevent poor positioning.
- We are aiming for a 90 degree bend in our knees, but some people can get lower depending on hip and ankle mobility.
- Putting our arms directly in front of us can help with balance.
