Schritt für Schritt
So geht’s
- After you've set your feet, grip the bar with your hands shoulder-width apart and remove it from the rack by straightening your torso and legs.
- Begin the squat by bending your knees and hips, lowering your body as much as possible while keeping your chest up, back straight and knees over your feet.
- Once you've reached the lowest point of your squat, push through your heels to straighten your legs and return to your starting position, making sure to keep your core engaged and back straight throughout the movement.
- Repeat the movement for your desired number of repetitions, always ensuring that you maintain proper form.

Technik-Tipps
Avoid rushing through the movement. Lower your body slowly, maintaining control, until your thighs are parallel to the ground. Then push up through your heels to return to the standing position. Quick, jerky movements can lead to injury.
It's essential to keep your back straight and chest up throughout the exercise. Leaning forward or rounding your back can lead to injuries. If you find it hard to maintain this posture, it might be a sign that the weight is too heavy.
When you stand up during the squat, avoid locking your knees. This can put unnecessary stress on your joints. Instead
