How To Perform Exercise

Steps :

1.) Set up a smith machine for the front squat exercise by placing the amount of weight that you would like to perform for this exercise.

2.) Position your shoulders underneath the bar so that the weight is rested upon your collar bone.

3.) Cross your arms and place your hands on top of the barbell as this will be your starting position.

4.) Push up with your heels and remove the bar from the rack, then slowly lower your body down towards the floor so that your thighs are parallel with the ground and hold for a count.

5.) Return back to the starting position.

6.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
