Squats
1. This is the meat and potatoes of any successful athlete, so treat them that way. If you don’t squat than you will never get faster, point blank. Here are some pointers that will help you correctly teach your athletes how to squat.
2. When setting up under the bar have your athletes treat it as if they were going to squat it. Have them stay tight, elbows bent in, and to really squeeze their shoulder blades together to give the bar something to rest on.
