Squat on BOSU Ball
The bodyweight squat standing on a BOSU, arms reaching forward; the unstable base makes every rep a balance drill as well.
How to do it
Setup
Standing on a BOSU with the feet hip-width and centered, arms out in front, knees soft.
Steps
- Sit the hips back and down until the thighs are near parallel.
- Keep the knees over the toes and the platform level.
- Stand up slowly without letting the BOSU tip.
Common mistakes
Feet too close to the edge: center them before squatting. Knees caving in as the base wobbles: push them out over the toes. Going deeper than the balance allows: squat as low as you can stay steady.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
