Power Stance: Feet straight and shoulder width apart.
Prioritizing straight feet sets you up for a stronger, more stable knee position when you move.
Allowing your feet to turn out reduces stability in your knees and increases the likelihood that your knees will collapse inwards causing sheer across the joint.
While a shoulder-width stance is ideal for hinging and squatting tasks, you can adapt a staggered power stance to create forward or backward force.
When twisting or turning, always utilize a pivot step. This ensures your feet rotate with you maintaining a strong knee position as you turn. Keeping a planted foot while turning creates an unwanted shearing force on the knee.
