How to do it

  1. 1The Frankenstein squat is a variation of the squat where the barbell is held in front of the body with straight arms, challenging the glutes, quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves.

Coaching cues

  • Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the barbell in front of your body with straight arms.
  • Keeping your back straight, lower your body by bending at the knees and hips, as if sitting back into a chair.
  • Continue lowering until your thighs are parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go.
  • Pause for a moment, then push through your heels to return to the starting position.
  • Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
