Bottle Weighted Sumo Squat
The sumo squat holding a full water bottle between the legs; a home stand-in for a kettlebell or dumbbell.
How to do it
Setup
Feet wide, toes out, a full bottle hanging in both hands between the legs.
Steps
- Sit straight down until the bottle nears the floor.
- Push the knees out over the toes.
- Stand, squeezing the glutes at the top.
Common mistakes
Bottle swinging between the legs: it hangs still. Chest dropping toward the floor: keep it tall. Knees caving on the way up: drive them out.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
