TRX Assisted Squat

In the video below you will see osteopath Heath Williams of Principle Four Osteopathy performing a TRX assisted squat.  The TRX is being utilised to provide stability and reduce the load required to perform the squat.  The benefit of performing this exercise is that it allows the individual to explore a greater range of motion in the squat safely by offloading some of the weight.  This is a great exercise to incorporate into ones training program if you are looking to have the individual experience a greater range of motion in their squat or are simply wanting someone to start squatting with less than bodyweight.

If you currently suffer from any lower limb injuries, please consult with your osteopath before trying this exercise.
