Smith squat: how to do it
1 of 3
Feet slightly in front of the bar
Starting position
Place the bar across your upper back, grip outside your shoulders, set your feet shoulder-width apart slightly in front of the bar, then unlock it.
The movement
Bend your knees and hips and lower along the rails, then press through your whole feet until you stand again.
Most common mistake
Don't lift your heels off the floor, keep your whole feet down and let your knees track in line with your toes.
