Hey, Guys...here's a little review/pointers about the Overhead Squat. The OHS is obviously not a lift that people can just walk in and pick up right away - it takes weeks, months, sometimes even years of practice to become comfortable and efficient at it. That doesn't mean, however, that we should avoid it...we should practice at every opportunity. So every now and then practice them with a PVC or an empty bar focusing only on technique.
This is Heather, one of our AWESOME Crossfitters. Heather is fairly new to Hybrid, but has a lot of experience in Crossfit and it was apparent when watching her squat. Notice how her shoulders/arms are active and pushing the bar up towards the sky. She is comfortably sitting deep into her squat with the weight on her heels and her knees tracking out. Her torso is upright, lower back solid, midline stable...EXCELLENT job, Heather!
