Common mistakes

  • You bend the knees and drop into a squat instead of sending the hips back into a hinge.

  • You round the back at the bottom when the hamstrings run out of length.

  • You let the weight tip onto the toes as the torso lowers.

  • You let the knees drift inward on the way back up.

What to focus on

  • Push the hips straight back like you are closing a door behind you, keeping the shins near vertical.

  • Let hamstring tension set your depth — stop the hinge where the stretch loads, not where the floor is.

  • Keep the neck neutral, eyes tracking the floor a few feet ahead as you fold.
