Barbell Squats

In this instructional video from Performance Science International, we break down how to perform the squat safely and effectively. Squats are a key movement for building lower body strength, but they come with a lot of moving parts. This video will guide you through proper setup, form, and execution to help you avoid common mistakes.

Key Takeaways:

  • Rack Setup: Learn how to set up your squat rack correctly to ensure safety if you need to bail.
  • Proper Squat Form: Engage your core and maintain a tight, almost arched back throughout the movement to avoid injury and maximize strength.
  • Foot Positioning: Push out of your heels to take the pressure off your knees and target the quads, glutes, and hips.
  • Full Range of Motion: Don't stop halfway—going all the way down builds the muscle and strength you want.
    Follow this guide to master the squat and take your leg workouts to the next level!
