Execution St

from a safety squat bar racked just below shoulder
height. Step back into the bar so that the back pad
is up against your neck and the other two pads
are over your shoulders. Unrack the bar and
start in a standing position with your hands
holding the pads over your shoulders. Keeping
your weight over your heels and your chest
out, squat down until your thighs reach slightly
past parallel with the floor. Drive back up to
standing, keeping your back flat and chest out
the entire time.
When to Do It As your first squat movement
in a leg workout (alternated with front squat and
one-legged Smith machine squat).
