Elastics Squat

Video coming soon...

The elastic squat workout is designed to primarily engage the quads and glutes.

By incorporating elastic bands, the workout adds resistance to target these muscle groups more effectively.

The elastics provide constant tension throughout the movement, increasing muscle activation and promoting growth.

While the workout may also engage auxiliary muscles, its main focus is on the quads and glutes.

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointing slightly outward.
Place an elastic band around your thighs, just above your knees.
Engage your core and keep your chest lifted as you slowly lower your body into a squat position.
Push your hips back and bend your knees, keeping your weight in your heels.
Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as far as you can comfortably go.
Pause for a moment, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Ensure proper form by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out, and the elastic band securely placed just above your knees.
Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button towards your spine, maintaining a straight back, and keeping your chest lifted throughout the entire movement.
Initiate the squat by bending your knees and pushing your hips back, as if you are sitting back into a chair. Keep your weight in your heels and maintain a neutral spine position.
Focus on engaging your quads and glutes as you push through your heels to return to the starting position. Imagine squeezing your glutes at the top of the movement to maximize activation.
Control the descent and ascent of the squat, avoiding any bouncing or jerking movements. Aim for a slow and controlled tempo to fully engage the targeted muscles and prevent injury.
