📖 Detailed description

Lower into a controlled squat, stay at the bottom, and perform a small extra pulse before rising back up. Keep the weight in your heels, your chest open, and your knees aligned with your toes.

💡 Execution tips

  • The pulse should be controlled, not a bouncy reflex.

⚠️ Common mistakes

  • Knees caving inward, dropping the chest, using momentum instead of muscle.

🔀 Variants

  • Squat Classique
  • Squat with Pause
