Sissy Squat

Keep the hips open and squat as deeply as you are able without pain.

Cues:

• Squeeze the glutes to open hips before you move into the squat

• Continue squeezing glutes throughout entire range

• Focus more on pushing knees and hips forward than leaning back

Scale: 

• Adjust range so it is pain free and hips stay completely open with control

• Shift back to heels under control after negative and stand as a normal squat

Errors:

• Allowing hip to close during descent

• Moving too quickly and without control
