Overhead Squat (Barbell)
Also called Overhead Squat, BB Overhead Squat
How to do it
Take a wide snatch grip and lock the bar out overhead with active shoulders and the feet wider than the shoulders. Sit down into a full squat keeping the bar stacked over mid-foot, then stand back up without letting the bar drift forward.
Setup
Wide snatch grip, bar locked out overhead and slightly behind the ears, shoulders active. Feet shoulder width, toes out.
Where you should feel it
Quads driving, but mostly the whole torso and shoulders fighting to keep the bar stacked.
When to use it
A mobility and position test more than a strength lift. Go light, use it to expose restrictions before Olympic work.
