Overview
The steel club order squat has all the benefits of a traditional squat with the added benefit of developing grip and shoulder strength.
Teaching Points
- Hold the steel club in the order position with your shoulders packed down.
- With your feet placed shoulder width apart, brace the abdominal and back muscles and initiate the squat by flexing from the knees and hips.
- Slowly lower the hips to a comfortable position (thighs parallel to the floor if possible).
- From the bottom position push the ground away by squeezing through the glutes and driving down through the heels.
- Keep the chest lifted throughout to maintain a neutral spine from crown to coccyx.
- The knees should remain in line with the toes with the heels down and in contact with the floor.
- Return to the standing position and concentrate on getting the hips forward whilst squeezing the glutes.
Common Problems & Solutions
Error: Spinal alignment falling into flexion.
Correction: Keep chest lifted.
