The Airsquat is the meat and potatoes of the CrossFit stew. One of the nine of the Fundamental exercises, it's one of the first things you're taught at CFSF. Unfortunately over time, and when fatigued, Airsquats may become sloppy, or worse- a rule is broken. We have to stay dialed in while we Airsquat ALL THE TIME. No excuses.

If your Airsquat doesn't look like the one above practice until it does. This is where PC flexibility makes a HUGE difference. Tight hams? Good luck maintaining a lumbar curve throughout the whole exercise, or even able to squat to the correct depth.

Awareness, flexibility, and mobility are all necessary components of a good Airsquat. Sloppy movement is inefficient, and ugly. Stay clean, tight, and locked on when you squat.

No ugly Airsquats. Ever.
