Kettlebell Goblet Squat

HOW TO DO IT

1. 1Hold the kettlebell by the horns close to your upper chest.
2. 2Stand with feet slightly wider than shoulder-width and toes angled out.
3. 3Keep your elbows tucked in and your chest proud.
4. 4Break at the hips and knees to lower your body straight down.
5. 5Descend until your elbows touch the inside of your knees.
6. 6Drive through your mid-foot to return to the standing position.

COMMON MISTAKES

• Letting the elbows drop away from the body.
• Collapsing the knees inward during the descent.
• Rising onto the toes instead of driving through heels.
• Rounding the lower back at the bottom of the squat.

TIPS

• Push your knees outward with your elbows at the bottom.
• Keep your gaze fixed on a point slightly above eye level.
• Maintain tension in your core throughout the entire rep.
