“Master your squat form by starting with chair squats! 🪑Chair squats are a safe, beginner-friendly way to learn proper squat mechanics without putting extra strain on your knees.✅ Stand in front of a chair, feet shoulder-width apart and slightly turned out.✅ Sit back until your glutes tap the chair, keeping your knees at a 90-degree angle.✅ Shift your weight to your heels and push up to stand tall.Once you’ve nailed the basics, you can level up by adding weight or progressing to air squats.

I love chair squats as a starting exercise for beginners because it helps strengthen the legs but maybe more importantly it helps you become more familiar with the hip hinge. It helps us discover our hamstrings and our backs will thank us. | Jim Brown
