Narrow Deficit Squat

Exercise Instructions: Follow the steps below for the Narrow Squat From Deficit.

1. Stand on an elevated platform or raised surface to create a deficit. Your feet should be slightly closer than shoulder-width apart.

2. Engage your core and keep your chest lifted as you prepare to lower into the squat position.

3. Slowly squat down by bending your knees and hips, keeping the weight centered over your feet. Ensure your knees track in line with your toes and do not extend beyond your toes.

4. Lower your body to a depth that is challenging yet comfortable, aiming for the thighs to be parallel to the floor or slightly lower if mobility allows. The deficit will allow a greater range of motion compared to a normal squat.

5. Drive through your heels and push upwards to return to the starting position. Ensure that you maintain a straight back and an upright chest throughout the movement.

6. Complete the desired number of repetitions and sets.

Remember to keep the movements controlled and to adjust the added weight (if using any) to align with your strength levels and fitness goals. It is important to maintain proper form to prevent injuries and to get the most benefit from the exercise.
