Wanna also give a shout out to our Head Coach Trey for his debut at the Junior Worlds Olympic Weightlifting meet coaching for Team USA!! A lot of work goes on behind the scenes with the programming, training, and coaching. We see the time you put in and the constant pursuit to become a better coach. It’s awesome to see your hard work pay off and we’re excited to see your journey together continue!

Coach Trey going over the second Squat in our Squat Series! 

	The Front Squat

	Set-up:
	-Begin with feet hip-width apart.
	-Toes can be turned slightly outward.
	-Ensure a full grip on the barbell, with elbows pointing forward and slightly upward.
	-The bar should rest on the shoulders, just in front of the throat, with the fingertips under the bar.
	
	Squat Initiation:
	-Initiate the squat by sending the hips back and down, maintaining the chest up 	and elbows high.

	Depth:
	-The crease of the hip should pass below the top of the knee at the bottom of the squat.
	-Ensure knees are tracking over the toes but not excessively past them.
	
	Midline Stability:
	-Keep a tight core throughout the movement.
	-The chest should remain upright, with the back maintaining its natural curve.
	
	Elbow Position:
	-Keep the elbows up and forward throughout the movement.
	-This position helps maintain an upright torso and keeps the barbell secure.
	
	Ascent:
	-Push through the heels.
	-Keep the knees out and tracking over the toes.
	-Return to a full standing position with hips and knees fully extended.
	
	Breathing:
	-Take a deep breath and brace the core before descending.
	-Exhale at the top or as you ascend.
	
	Heels:
	-Ensure the heels stay grounded throughout the movement. Avoid lifting them off the floor.
	
	Bar Path:
	-The bar should travel in a straight vertical line over the midfoot.
	
	Final Position:
 -Stand up fully, with hips and knees extended.

	Remember, like all movements, it’s essential to perform front squats with proper technique to ensure safety and effectiveness. It’s always a good idea to have a certified coach observe and provide feedback.
