Barbell Front Squat

Schritt für Schritt

So geht’s

1. Stand facing the barbell, spread your arms out forward and then cross them over to grip the bar, allowing it to rest on the front of your shoulders and cross your fingers for better support.
2. Lift the bar off the rack by pushing up with your legs and straightening your torso, then step back from the rack and position your legs using a shoulder width medium stance with the toes slightly pointed out.
3. Start the exercise by bending your knees and sitting back with your hips, keeping your torso upright and maintaining the natural curve of your spine, until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
4. Push your body back up to the starting position by driving through your heels, keeping the barbell on the front of your shoulders and your torso as upright as possible.
