Side to Wide Squat
From a very wide stance, squat into one leg, come back to the middle for a wide squat, then squat into the other leg.
How to do it
Setup
Very wide stance, toes turned out, hands together at the chest.
Steps
- Shift over one leg and squat into it, the other leg straight.
- Come back to the middle and squat straight down between the feet.
- Stand, then shift and squat to the other side.
Common mistakes
Feet stepping between the squats: the stance stays fixed. Knees caving in the middle squat: push them out over the toes. Rounding the back to go deeper: chest up.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
