Sumo Squat
Legs, Quads, Glutes
- Start with your feet slightly wider than shoulder width apart with our toes facing slightly outward.
- We want our knees to stay in line with our toes for the entirety of the exercise. Do not bow your knees inward.
- We hold the weight between our legs and lower it straight down.
- 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 or arch your back.
- We are aiming for a 90 degree bend in our knees, but some people can get lower depending on hip mobility.
