Goblet Squat

In this video Coach, Joe Jones covers the Kettlebell Goblet Squat. The Goblet Squat is an exercise that mainly develops the quads with assistance from other muscles including the Glutes and Spinal Erectors.

1: Grab a kettlebell or dumbbell and hold it at chest level.

2: Set your feet in a squat stance, so that the heels are at hip-width or slightly wider.

3: To squat, sit the hips down over the heels, making sure to pull your groin down between the thighs.

4: As you descend, be sure to support the weight so that it stays above your chest line.

5: At the bottom of the squat, you should be able to contract your back muscles to raise your chest high with the weight at that level.

7: When standing up, you need to actively lift the chest and the weight so that they both stay slightly higher than chest height. It is important the hips do not shoot backwards.
