A training device to induce the proper technique required to perform squatting exercises. The device is designed to be portable and constructed from light weight, cylindrical aluminum tubes, and includes foot guides, and knee guides, and hand grip, all of which may be moved to comply with the user's body size and degree of comfort. The foot guides are mounted to a foot rod that is secured in place by a pair of support legs, and the foot guides have a lateral range of movement of 3 to 20 inches. The knee guides slide laterally over a knee pole and have a range of movement from 3 to 20 inches. An adjustment rod provides for the knee guides to be varied from a height of 10 inches to a height of 21 inches. The hand grip may be placed at a distance from 44 to 54 inches and be capable of movement of 2 to 6 inches horizontally.
