@annabelleronnfeldt: 5 Tips to improve your back squat 🏋️‍♀️ I know how technical the back squat can be, so here’s a few cues to help you nail your form. @MOVE WITH US 1️⃣ Keep Spine neutral - Pick a spot on the floor roughly 2 metres in front of you and focus on that the whole time. 2️⃣ No “Butt Squeeze” - Glutes are in the most tension at the bottom of the squat so this will not activate your glutes anymore. 3️⃣ Get tight in your upper back - Think about squeezing your shoulder blades together and pulling elbows down + back. This tension should be held throughout the whole movement. - Imagine you’re doing a lat pull down, that squeeze at the bottom is the sensation you should feel. - Helps keep our chest up and pressure off our lower back. 4️⃣ “Spread the floor” with your feet - Before initiating the squat, try to rotate your feet out. - This will engage the glutes and drive knees out over the toe and prevent them caving in. 5️⃣ Brace Core - Before every Rep, take a big breath in and hold this throughout the Rep - Very important to make sure you are stable under the weight which will help protect your spine. #backsquats #movewithus #weights
