Goblet Squat

The dumbbell squat — hold one dumbbell vertically at the chest and squat between the heels. The friendliest way to load a squat.

  • Category: Main circuit
  • Type: Free-weight squat (dumbbell)
  • Targets: Quadriceps, glutes, trunk
  • Prescription: 3 × 1012
  • Defaults: 3 × 10 weighted

Setup

Hold a dumbbell vertically against your chest, both palms cupping the top end, elbows pointing down. Feet shoulder-width, toes slightly out.

Execution

  1. Squat down between the heels, keeping the dumbbell glued to the chest.
  2. Reach full depth — elbows travel inside the knees.
  3. Stand back up tall without letting the weight tip you forward.

Cues

  • The counterweight in front lets the torso stay very upright — use it.
  • Elbows brush the inside of the knees at the bottom.
  • Whole foot planted; drive through the heels.

Common Mistakes

  • Letting the dumbbell drift away from the chest.
  • Cutting depth short.
  • Collapsing the upper back as the weight gets heavy.

Progression

Heavier dumbbells until they're awkward to hold — then move to the Barbell Squat.
