Barbell Front Squat

Grab a barbell. Begin in an upright standing position with your feet a little wider than shoulder width apart, chest and back straight. Rest the barbell across the front of your shoulders in a cross grip with your right arm crossed over your left. Begin squatting by sending your hips back and down. When you finish the squat, your glutes and quads should be parallel with the ground. Keep your back as straight as possible throughout the exercise. Push yourself back up to the starting position using your glutes and quads. The barbell should maintain the same position during the exercise. Repeat for desired amount of reps.
