Building up to deep squats can be a very simple, enjoyable process!

The ability to get up off the ground without the assistance of your arms is important.

As usual, we can start with something we CAN do and build up!

IMPORTANT: I forgot to mention during the video that we should always follow the progressions that don't use a full range of motion (like chair squats and half squats) with one that does. For example, following chair squats with a single set of jackknife squats. I feel like it's important to train the full squat motion, even if part of it is assisted!

Here are the progressions:

Resisted Lying Squats
Goal: 3 Sets of 50

Jackknife Squats
Goal: 3 Sets of 35

Assisted Squats:
Goal: 2-3 Sets of 30

Chair Squats:
Goal: 2 Sets of 35

Half Squats
Goal: 2 Sets of 35

FULL SQUATS! TADA!

Hope this helps you out!
