Obviously, the clear solution is months of proper stretching and mobility work to loosen up.  But until that happens there is a quick fix you can utilize today.  Now, to the majority of you I’m sure the straight barbell is king when it comes to squatting. But is that because it’s the only thing available to you or because there truly is nothing better? Well, I want you take a moment to think about just how much your training gear has progressed since you started your fitness journey. You probably went from hitting the gym with running shoes, shorts and a tank top to now wearing dry-fit clothing, proper weightlifting shoes, a weight belt, wrist straps and maybe even bringing your own little bag of chalk.  My point is, there are always ways to enhance your workouts and that’s what we are going to talk about in today’s video. Four Reasons why the safety squat barbell can help take your leg training to the next level!  Anatomy Of The Squat But before we get started, let’s have a quick recap of the anatomy of the squat. Now the squat is by far one of the best lower body exercise you can do to build muscle and strength in your legs, there’s no disputing that. It’s a push movement that heavily activates your glutes, quads and hamstrings and there are actually TWO variations of the barbell squat depending on the position of the barbell on your shoulders. If you rest the barbell high across your shoulders/neck, it’s called a High-Bar Squat and if the barbell rests more on your mid back, it’s called a Low-Bar Squat.  I’m not going to go too deep into detail now so if you want to learn more about each variation I do have an article about it and you can check it out HERE later.  But the key difference between them has to do with the positioning of the torso. With the high-bar squat your torso moves up and down extremely upright, almost like a Front Squat. With the low-bar squat however, your torso assumes a much more bent-over position, similar to a deadlift.  Now having said that, both variations require three things:  Excellent shoulder & chest mobility, to get under the barbell and grip it properly.  Excellent core control & low back strength, to prevent a lower back injury.  And lastly, there are other smaller yet very important form tweaks, such as hip and knee positioning that can really make a difference when it comes to injury prevention and performance during the lift. But when does the safety squat barbell come into play? Well, the main reason why the safety squat barbell is often times superior to the standard squat is the fact that you DON’T have to worry about shoulder or chest mobility when grabbing the barbell because of the position of the handles and most importantly, the mechanics of the safety squat barbell automatically lock your body in basically what can be called “perfect form”. So, the question is… should you make the switch from the barbell to the safety squat barbell?  Well, let’s dive in and take a look at the FOUR main benefits of the safety squat barbell.  1. The Safety Squat Barbell Offers Better Core Stability, Less Stress On The Lower Back As Well As Less Hip & Knee Stress. This is because the safety squat barbell sits a bit higher than a standard barbell and the camber pushes you forward, forcing you to fight to stay upright. Therefore, you will be a bit more upright than a high-bar squat and a lot more upright than a low-bar squat.  *CONTINUE READING HERE* https://muscularstrength.com/article/SQUATS-Four-Reasons-To-Ditch-The-STRAIGHT-BARBELL  Program Selector -  Get The Right Program For You! - https://muscularstrength.com/Program-Selector ---------------------------------------- Subscribe To My Channel - https://www.youtube.com/user/ScottHermanFitness ---------------------------------------- 1 on 1 Online Coaching - http://muscularstrength.com/consultations  ---------------------------------------- DOWNLOAD MY APP! – iPhone & Android! https://muscularstrength.com/phoneapp ---------------------------------------- MORE TIPS! - https://www.instagram.com/ScottHermanFitness'
