Form cues
- Sit back and down toward the chair like you're reaching for it with your hips
- Knees track over your toes, chest stays proud
- Touch the chair lightly and stand up tall — don't plop
Common errors
- ✗ Collapsing onto the chair instead of controlling the descent
- ✗ Knees caving inward on the way up
How Kalyra programs it
Trains the squat pattern through quads and glutes with a clear rep target and progression path — one of the fundamental movements a balanced plan is built from.
Typically 2–4 sets of 8–12 reps.
