Dumbbell Goblet 2 Sec Hold Squat
The goblet squat with a still pause in the bottom position before each rise.
How to do it
Setup
Feet shoulder-width, the bell cupped against the sternum.
Steps
- Squat to the bottom and stop dead.
- Hold the pause, chest tall, knees out.
- Drive up from the stillness, no bounce.
Common mistakes
Bouncing out of the pause: the stop must be dead still. Relaxing in the hole: stay braced through the hold. Rushing the count: hold the bottom a full beat.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
