A Squat Variation to Save Your Knees

They told you this was bad for you.

They lied.

I don't know why but a lot of you have been told to believe that your knee should never go in front of your toe when you're exercising.

It's simply an easy lie.

You knee goes over, and in front of your toe all the time in your regular life. Look down the next time you're walking up the stairs. I'll bet your knee goes in front of your toe on every step.

Your knee going in front of your toe is not a bad.

In a lot of cases it's actually a good thing, and when you lean to properly execute it you can save yourself from some lower back pain.

Here's one way to do that.
