Feel it right
Where you should feel it, the one cue to remember, and quick fixes when you feel it somewhere else.
You should feel it inGlutes
Joints moving smoothly through a bigger range; a mild stretch, never pinching.
Key cue (the coach says it during the set)“Move slowly and stay in control.”
Tempo · Slow and smooth
Feel it somewhere else? Fix it like this
- Barely felt itToo light or too fast. Lower for 3 seconds, pause 1 second at the stretch, and pick a load that leaves only 1–2 reps in the tank.
- Joint painSharp or joint pain is a stop sign: end this set, lower the weight, shorten the range — if it repeats, switch to an easier variation.
During a workout we ask after the first set where you felt it and give the fix right away — and remember it for next time.
Tips
- Move slowly and keep your heels on the floor as the knees rotate.
- Builds the hip rotation you need for deep squats and lunges.
Common mistakes
- Rounding your back and collapsing your chest as the knees rotate.
Breathing
Exhale as you rotate the knees, inhale as you settle.
