Front Squat (Double)

The Double Front Squat is one of the best core and leg strengtheners out there. You not only get the benefit of stronger legs, but your shoulders will be given a fantastic workout as well. Simply holding the kettlebells in place is taxing on your shoulders, arms and core. It is imperative to maintain core tension throughout the exercise to ensure a safe movement. Since the weight wants to bring you forward it is easy to lean forward and put strain on your lower back. Stay as upright as possible, stay tight and reap the benefits of the double front squat immediately.

Purpose/Focus:	Strength
