Coaching-Hinweise
Technik-Tipps
Maintain a straight back throughout the exercise. This is crucial for avoiding injuries and getting the most out of the exercise. When you squat down, your thighs should be parallel to the floor. Avoid leaning forward or rounding your back as it can put unnecessary pressure on your lower back.
Avoid rushing through the exercise. Instead, perform each squat in a slow and controlled manner. This not only helps to ensure you're using proper form, but it also increases the effectiveness of the exercise by making your muscles work harder.
Make sure to squat deep enough to engage all the muscles in your legs.
