Overview
Jefferson squats are a challenging of the traditional squat that targets the quads, glutes, and hamstrings. To do a Jefferson squat, start with your feet shoulder-width apart and your toes turned out slightly. Hold a barbell across your upper back with your hands shoulder-width apart. Keeping your chest up and your core engaged, slowly lower your body until your thighs are parallel to the floor. Pause for a second at the bottom, then push back up to the starting position. Jefferson squats are a great way to build strength and muscle mass in your lower body.
