A post shared by Ben Smith (@bsmit13)

“You gotta master the basics first! The one thing I tell athletes that ask me how they can get better is to improve their air squat! Ask any athlete at Krypton. You can ALWAYS get better at improving your mobility and efficiency for your air squat. This will translate over to almost every other movement in @crossfit and is often overlooked.”

Everyday You Can Squat

Barefoot Squats Help

Mix Up Your Squats

“Our instructors takes you through how to properly perform a Goblet Squat. Performed with a kettle bell held in a front rack position, this exercise is an advanced movement to the normal body squat.”

Other type of squats to include in your workout:

KB Front Squats
Box Squats
DB Front Squats
Goblet Squats
Lunges
Box Step Ups

Squat on one leg

“This is both the single greatest leg exercise and the greatest single leg exercise, and I’m going to show you how to do it step by step. The Bulgarian Split Squat or rear foot elevated squat is one of the best exercises you can do period, let alone for your legs. There are so many benefits to this leg exercise beyond just its ability to build up your leg strength and size without requiring any heavy duty equipment.”
