• Find a box or bench that is roughly knee height or a few inches lower. (The lower the box is the lower the mobility requirement).
    You can either place your toes or the top of your foot on the box. Point your front foot forward or slightly turned outwards and break at the knees and hips simultaneously.
    Aim to get your front leg to hit parallel depth (hamstring parallel with the ground) or lower.
    The further forward your front foot is, the longer the Range of Motion is at your hips. The further back your front foot is, the longer the ROM at your knees.
  • Place the barbell on your back
    Step your foot back and around while simultaneously bringing the weight down.
    Return to start and repeat on other leg.
  • Pull your shoulder blades back really hard and place the bar on your posterior delts.
    Push your hips back and break at the knees to initiate the squat.
    Aim to get your hamstrings to parallel with the ground. Push your heels into the floor and squat back up to a standing position.
  • Place one foot behind. You should only be on your toes on that back foot. Your front foot should be planted flat the entire time.
    Bend your back knee and push your hips back. Look for a stretch in your front hamstring.
    When you feel the stretch, push your hips forward again until you're back in a standing position.
