You want to make sure that the person doing the squat has the bar in the correct spot whether it be a front or back squat. Two locations are acceptable for the back squat 1- High bar position, above the posterior deltoids at the base of the neck or 2- Low bar position, across the posterior deltoids at the level of middle trapezius.

Once the person has the bar off and is ready to move downwards you want to make sure they move slowly, keep their back flat, elbows high and their chest up and out while looking forward or slightly upwards. Their knees should stay over their feet and not go past their toes. They should also be pushing through their heels which should remain on the floor but be sure their toes do not come off the floor either. When their thighs become parallel with the floor they should begin moving upwards by extending their hips and knees at the same rate with the same form as the downward movement phase until the beginning position is reached.

What are the differences between sumo squats and pli squats in terms of their benefits and muscle activation?

Sumo squats and pli squats are both variations of squats that target different muscles. Sumo squats target the inner thighs and glutes more, while pli squats focus on the inner thighs and quadriceps. Sumo squats are beneficial for strengthening the inner thigh and glute muscles, while pli squats are good for targeting the inner thigh and quadriceps. Both exercises can help improve lower body strength and muscle tone, but the specific muscle activation differs between the two variations.
