Goblet Squat

The Quadricep muscle group helps develop strength and lower body power through out the swing. And assists in hip stability, and vertical force

Starting position:

Hold kettlebell, or single dumbbell in front of the chest, shoulders should stay down and back, elbow in front of the body. Foot position may vary by person, but traditional stance is feet wider then hips, toes slightly pointed out.

Movement:

Keeping your spine neutral throughout the movement begin the squat by hinging at the hips, to get them behind the torso and knees then lower the hips down to knee level, or to comfort. Return to the top of the squat by driving through the heels and squeezing the glutes to help extend the hips back to standing.

Notes: Try to allow the knees to point in the same direction as the toes, without going over the toes. As you stand back up, think of pulling the floor apart with your feet.
The weight acts as a counterweight for the hips to allow for better movement, and straighter spine, but this can be done with a heavier weight and creating tension with the upper body.
