How to Do the Perfect Bodyweight Squat (Complete Guide)

Perfect Bodyweight Squat Technique

The bodyweight squat is the cornerstone of functional movement, targeting your glutes, quadriceps, and hamstrings while engaging your entire core. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures every rep builds strength with perfect form.

Step-by-Step Form Guide

Starting Position:Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly pointed outward (15-30 degrees)
Hip Hinge:Initiate movement by pushing hips back as if sitting into a chair, keeping chest proud
Descent:Lower until hip crease is below knee level, maintaining knees tracking over toes
Drive Up:Push through whole foot to return to standing, driving knees outward

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Knees caving inward during movement
Forward lean with excessive torso tilt
Partial range of motion (shallow squats)
Rising onto toes instead of full foot contact
Inconsistent tempo and control
