Coach's Notes.
Compare squats to 08.13.12. Warmup and get in 5 sets at working weight, either sets across or work toward a 5 RM. Pair up with a training partner and critique each other's technique: depth, driving knees out, upper body position, midline stability, etc. Make every rep perfect, and practice good form rather than overloading the bar and reinforcing bad patterns.
Training Videos.
- "WOD 120927 Demo: BS 5x5" - with CrossFit Montgomery County.
- "So You Think You Can Squat?" - my own form flaws and pointers from Elizabeth during the CFT last week sent me in search of some reference material on the squat. In this 5-part series, Matt Wenning from EliteFTS provides clear, methodical instruction on improving squat technique. Bite off what you can chew for tomorrow, then bookmark it and revisit regularly.
