MONDAY MOVEMENT:

Smith Machine Squat

Besties, if your knees hurt everytime you use a smith machine, this one is for you

Key form takeaways:
-Glutes face the slant (this puts emphasis on the glutes) - it’lI be different for each machine, so check how yours is set up at your gym
- Knees do NOT follow the slant
- Drive through your heels to hit glutes (not just your quads)
-Slow the tempo
-Brace your core and keep your chest proud
- Feet shoulder- width, slightly flared

The Smith Machine is a tool- use it right and your glutes (and joints) will thank you later!

Save this for your next leg day 📝
