How to Use a Squat Rack + How to Squat - BEGINNER'S GUIDE

Description

What's up!?

In this beginner-friendly video, I'll be taking you step-by-step through how to use a squat rack and how to squat with proper form!

We'll go over everything from:
- How to adjust a squat rack
- What plates are and how to use them
- Why the barbell hurts your neck when squatting
- Where to put your hands on the barbell
- The correct position for the barbell (high and low bar)
- How to breathe during squats
- Mistakes to avoid when squatting
- What shoes to wear
- And so much more!

I hope that you feel so much more comfortable and confident going into the gym to squat after watching this video!

Never forget, that literally every single person starts at square one--not ever did anyone go into the gym and squat 2x their body weight with perfect form.
We all start at the bottom and practice practice practice in order to get better.
