Suspension Trainer Deep Squat Stretch

Technique

How to perform Suspension Trainer Deep Squat Stretch

1. Face the anchor and hold the suspension handles with the straps taut and your feet about shoulder-width apart.
2. Use the straps for light support as you let the arms reach forward and the shoulder blades move apart.
3. Bend the hips and knees to lower into a controlled deep squat, keeping the feet planted.
4. Allow the upper back to round gently while maintaining the forward reach; choose a depth you can enter and leave under control.
5. Pause at the bottom and breathe normally without forcing the knees outward with the elbows.
6. Use the leg action and strap support to rise, then repeat the controlled descent.
