In this case, in this photo, the string would land in the middle of his foot which is perfect. (Photos will be added at a later date)&nbsp; If you had 50 athletes in the bleachers, it would take less than two minutes t identify all the athletes who would not fit this perfect alignment format. t would also only take about two minutes to correct any alignment problems There are three ways to look at knees for correct squatting alignment: Knees out, in or forward.</DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG>Knees Out: </STRONG>(See Figure 2)&nbsp; You will be able to see this problem easily whether the athletes are in the bleachers or actually squatting.&nbsp; The knees-out problem can easily be corrected by just widening out the athlete's stance.&nbsp; Widen out the stance until the knees are aligned directly over the toes.&nbsp; Squatting with the knees out will put unwanted pressure on the lateral collaeral ligaments.</DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG>Knees In: </STRONG>(See Figure 3)&nbsp; This problem is quite common with women athletes and junior high age boys.&nbsp;Again, you will be able to see the knees-in problem from the bleachers or squatting.&nbsp; When squatting the kees-in problem will surface on the way up.&nbsp; The knees are usually alright on the way down when squatting.&nbsp; The knees-in problem is more difficult to correct and puts unwanted pressure on the medial collateral ligaments.&nbsp; The first step is to yell "knees" to the athlete while squatting.&nbsp; This is a signal to force the knees out over the toes.&nbsp; </DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left>This signal may or may not work the first time.&nbsp; If not, the second correction technique is to lightly slap the inside of the athlete's knee as shown in Figure 4.&nbsp; This gives the athlete a kinesthetic feel of the problem.&nbsp; The cure usually happens after only a few light slaps.&nbsp; If the problem persists, then video taping the athlete squat so he/she can see themselves will almost always do the trick in those few extreme cases.</DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG>Knees Forward:&nbsp;
