Exercise Regressions

Altering or regressing our exercises can allow us to improve the quality of our movement and in turn, perform better!

For example, using a bench or box behind you to perform a back squat can allow you to:

Lift more weight
Squat deeper
Reduce forward translation of the weight
Improve the relationship between hip and knee movement
Keep heels on the ground therefore providing more stability
