Barbell Front Squat Movement

1. From the start position, draw your belly button inward toward your spine.

2. Maintaining tone in the deep abdomen, descend slowly by bending at the knees and hips.

3. During the descent, maintain weight distribution between the midfoot and heels. Do not allow the feet to cave inward or shift outward.

4. While maintaining tone in the lower abdomen and optimal kinetic chain alignment, drive through the feet extending the ankle, knee, and hip joints while your weight is evenly distributed between heels and mid-foot. Do not allow body weight to shift toward the toes.

5. The knees should track over the second and third toes.

6. Perform downward reps slowly and concentrate on the descent and the squat position alignment of your body.

7. Descend as far as you can control. Partial squats should progress to full squats as neuromuscular efficiency improves.
