Safety Bar Squat Video Exercise Guide

The safety bar squat is a variation of the barbell back squat and an exercise used to strengthen the muscles of the legs.

The safety bar used in a safety bar squat allows you to have more control on the weight used for the exercise. This control leads to better body positioning throughout the duration of the squat.

Safety bars are commonly used by lifters coming off an injury, or those simply looking to remove some of the tension placed on the low back during other barbell squat variations.
