If your wide leg squats feel more like a good morning or your back rounds no matter what, this one’s for you.

Using a PVC pipe (or broomstick!) as a cue can give instant feedback to help you:

✔️ Maintain a neutral spine
✔️ Stop collapsing forward
✔️ Improve body awareness and posture
✔️ Build better squat mechanics—especially if you're postpartum, working with prolapse, or retraining your core

Whether you're rehabbing, lifting, or just trying to feel stronger in your movements, this is a go-to drill for better squat alignment and body control.

🎯 Try it as part of your warm-up or prep before heavier lifts.
🎥 Watch 'til the end for common mistakes to avoid and tips to get the most out of the cue.
