Dumbbell Goblet Cossack Squat
A step-by-step form guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the lift, what to watch for, and the muscles it trains.
- Equipment
- Dumbbell
HOW TO PERFORM
- Stand very wide with the toes turned slightly out, holding one dumbbell upright at your chest.
- Shift over to one side and squat down on that leg, keeping the other leg STRAIGHT with the toes up.
- Sink as deep as you can with the working heel flat and the chest tall.
- Push back to the middle, then go to the other side.
FORM TIPS
- The dumbbell in front counterbalances you, so most people sink deeper with it than without.
