How to Do Barbell Low-Bar Squat
The barbell low-bar squat is a compound lower body exercise where the bar rests lower on the back (rear delts), allowing for more hip engagement and heavier loads compared to the high-bar variation.
💡 Instructions:
Place the barbell on your rear delts, just below the traps, and grip it firmly with hands slightly wider than shoulder-width.
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly pointed outward.
Brace your core, keep chest up, and hinge hips slightly before bending knees.
Lower yourself until thighs are parallel to the floor (or slightly below), maintaining a neutral spine.
Drive through heels and hips to return to the starting position.
⚠️ Common mistakes:
Placing the bar too high or too low on the back.
Letting knees cave inward.
Excessive forward lean or rounding the lower back.
Lifting heels off the ground.
