Goblet squat
TARGETS:
Back, core, shoulders
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell vertically against your chest with both hands cupped under the top end.
- Lower into a squat by bending your knees and pushing your hips back, keeping your chest upright.
- Lower until your thighs are parallel to the floor (or as low as your mobility allows), knees tracking over your toes.
- Drive through your heels to stand back up, squeezing your glutes at the top.
MODIFICATION:
Reduce squat depth, use a lighter dumbbell, or perform without weight first to nail the movement pattern.
