Smith Chair Squat

Attach resistance bands to the Smith machine bar and anchor them below the platform. Stand under the bar with feet shoulder‑width apart and bands providing additional resistance. Unrack the bar and squat down until your hips drop below parallel, keeping your chest upright and core engaged. Press through your heels to return to standing, maintaining control throughout the movement. The bands increase resistance at the top of the squat to enhance strength and power.
