Anderson Squat Tutorial

The Anderson squat (bottom start squat) primarily works power out of the bottom of a squat. This exercise will not build as much muscle, as it skips the eccentric portion of the lift. It is primarily used to build leg power and strength. It will work the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes. The abdominals will be used isometrically.
 
 
To begin this movement set a barbell in a power rack at a height that you can start with your legs at a 90 degree angle. Breathe and brace your abdominals.
 
 
Drive your feet into the ground while standing up keeping your back straight. Don’t lean over, but focus on keeping your upper body upright.
 
 
Finish the movement by locking your hips out at the top.
