🚨 HOW TO BAIL OUT OF A SQUAT 🚨

One of the most important things you can learn in the gym isn’t just how to squat.

It’s knowing what to do when a squat doesn’t go according to plan.

Whether you’re doing a back squat, front squat, or overhead squat, knowing how to safely bail can help you stay calm and avoid getting hurt.

🏋️ Front squat
🏋️ Overhead squat

In this video, we’ll show you what to do when you know you’re not going to make the rep.

The goal isn’t to be scared of the weight. It’s to be confident and prepared.

Learn the movement. Know your escape route. Then get back after it. 💪

That’s part of getting stronger at Local Roots Fitness.

Meet Sophia. She works in a hospital, which means her schedule is anything but easy to plan around!

In her first 90 days with us, she gained 4.2 pounds of muscle and dropped 4.1 percent body fat.

Being busy was never the reason she could not do it. She found the time and the energy for herself, and we could not be prouder of her.

More importantly than gaining the muscle and losing the body fat, she is able to walk around on her vacation and feel way more energy!! 🙌

If your schedule looks like Sophia's and you want the same kind of results, reply READY and we will get you booked for a free intro.

Between work, the kids, and everything else, when is the last time you actually had energy left over at the end of the day? Drop a 🙋 in the comments if working out has slipped to the bottom of your list lately. You are definitely not alone.

The number one thing holding people back from starting is not motivation. It is fear of getting hurt doing it wrong.

Here is exactly how we solve for that before you ever step into a group class.

A member walked in a few months ago and told us straight up, "I have not worked out in over 20 years, and honestly, I am nervous."

She started slow. Small steps every week. A coach in her corner the whole time, making sure her form was right before adding any weight.

A few months later, she is lifting more than she ever thought she could, keeping up with her grandkids at the beach without getting winded, and she tells us that walking into class each week is the best part of her day.

She is not the exception. This is what happens when someone finally gets a real starting point instead of guessing alone. This is why we do what we do.

*Elena in the photo is a bad ass who was able to lift her dad when the nurses couldn't 👀💪

Honest question for the Fernandina Beach crowd.

How many of you have thought about getting back into a workout routine, and then talked yourself out of it because you were scared of getting hurt trying to figure it out on your own?

We hear this all the time from people in their 50s and 60s who walk through our doors. You are not out of shape. You are just out of practice, and nobody ever showed you where to start.

Drop a yes in the comments if that sounds like you. Curious how common this actually is.
