TRX 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:
Start with the TRX at knee level, facing the TRX, Stand with your elbows at your side, with tension on the TRX straps. 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 using the assistance from the TRX, while 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.
