Bench Full Squat
A deep bodyweight squat down to a low step or bench behind; the target sets a full depth below parallel.
How to do it
Setup
Hands clasped at the chest, a low step just behind the heels.
Steps
- Sit down deep until the hips touch the step.
- Keep the heels planted and the chest up.
- Return to standing in one smooth drive.
Common mistakes
Dropping onto the step: lower all the way under control. Heels lifting to reach it: sit back further. Lower back rounding at the bottom: use a higher step until it stays flat.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
