http://www.athletecreator.com - If your commercial gym doesn't have a squat rack, I'd focus on these squat variations. Start with a jump and progress to a goblet squat, bulgarian split squat, pistol squat, and finally, a zercher squat.

  • @lolzgym haha

  • @Woody9985 the one you have at home... smartass..

  • if you squat below the parallel axis you will contract full blown immediate onset patellar AIDS

  • very helpful

  • @calebg2008 Wrong wrong wrong. Hurting your knees is bullshit. You have to be flexible enough to stay on your heels. Infact, it's good for your knees. People say full-function squats are bad for your knees, when in reality, they are good for them. They're bad for people who do to much weight and don't build up there full-function squats from a light weight(even no weight). Those people come on the balls of their feet when they squat, or don't go all the way down, which can be bad for your knees.

  • Clean the weight and do some front squats, and you can also jerk it and put it on your back, to crank out some back squats.

  • what kind of gym does not have a squat rack

  • @calebg2008 it's known as a zercher squat. and no you wont be able to load it as much. but thats the beauty of it, if you get strong as fuck in that lift. i guarantee, you'll be strong as fuck in pretty much every other lift.

  • If you get down power cleans you can front squat that bitch. No rack needed.

  • Pretty cool exercise with the big bar. You might want to put some locking collars on it though.
