Just in time for Mardi Gras!
Pause squats are fantastic for developing some strength and endurance, depending on the parameters.
Today, weight is optional.
To do the pause squat:
- set up like you would your regular squat
- brace your torso at a hard neutral
- pull the bar into your back and shrug into it
- sit to your squat position
- pause at the bottom for your goal number of seconds
- drive straight up WITHOUT dipping down first
Do about 3 here. Your choice how long you pause, 10-30 seconds, but make it REAL! You can do it 🙂
