Form tips: 
• feet wider than hip width, toes pointed 45 degrees out

• barbell: weight should begin right over shoe laces or an inch or two away from shins. Holding the weight with arms inside of legs 
• dumbbell or modification: weight should begin right between feet. Holding the weight with arms inside of legs 
• lock into place before lifting: hips down and back, neutral spine, shoulders back, and abs locked in *check these points before every rep 
• drive through your heels, keeping your toes planted until you are standing straight up 
• as you lower, slightly drive hips back and down until you are in the same position you started in
• the weight should always move in a straight line up and down keeping it close to your body the entire time 

❌ don’t round your back when lifting 
❌ don’t tilt your pelvis forward into a butt squeeze at the top 
❌ don’t think about using your upper body to lift the weight 
❌ don’t let the weight swing/move away from your shins/feet as you lower 

✅ do think about pushing the ground away from you as you lift up
