The Best Squat Tips from Dr. Stu Sondrup

Are you looking to perfect your squat technique? Look no further! In this blog post, we'll be sharing some invaluable tips from Dr. Stu Sondrup. By following these simple steps.

 

Starting Position

A good squat starts with proper positioning. To begin, place your toes under a chair. This might seem unusual, but it's an effective way to ensure your feet are in the correct position. Additionally, this technique helps maintain balance and stability during the squat.

Correct Form

As you squat, your knees should stay centered over the top of your feet. This is crucial for maintaining proper form and preventing potential injuries. Remember, the power of a squat comes from your lower body, so it's important to keep your knees and feet aligned. If your knees are going past your toes, it's a sign that your form is off. Make sure to correct this as it can lead to knee problems over time.

Consistency is Key

Lastly, make sure to stay consistent with your squats. Like any other exercise, squats require regular practice to see improvement. Even if you can only do a few at a time, keep at it and gradually increase your reps as you get stronger. Remember, the goal is not to do the most squats, but to do them correctly.
