front squat

3 Sets of 10 Reps

1. Take a deep breath in, tighten your core and pull your shoulder blades down and back.
2. Sit your hips back, bend your knees and push your knees out to lower into the Squat. Keep your chest andelbows up throughout the rep. By focusing on keeping your elbows as high as possible throughout the squat, this will keep your body upright and the bar secure in the crook of your hands and resting against your chest and shoulders.
3. Lower until your legs are at least parallel with the floor.
4. Drive through your midfoot to stand up out of the squat as if you are pushing the ground away from you. Squeeze your glutes to extend your hips at the top of the Squat.

3 Sets of 10 Reps Each Leg

1. Place a step or a box behind you and stand up tall.
2. Position your right foot on top of the step, bend your knees and lower the hips until your left thigh is parallel to the floor. Keep your weight in the front heel, your back leg is just there to offer some balance support.
3. Return to the starting position and repeat for 10 reps.
4. Switch legs.
5. Remember to keep your back straight, chest open and face front. You can hold a dumbbell or kettlebell vertically with your hands underneath the top of the weight against your body or hold a pair of weights next to your side.

kettlebell swings

3 Sets of 12 Reps

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart with a kettlebell about a foot in front of you on the ground. Bend at the waist and grasp the kettlebell handle with both hands. Your palms should be facing your body, and your torso should be nearly parallel to the ground.
2. Pull your shoulders down and back and brace your core before starting the exercise. Maintain these form cues throughout the entire set.
