Squats - With Bands

Legs · Band

How to do it

Split the band evenly between both sides: stand on the middle with both feet and bring the ends over your shoulders, holding them at collarbone height. Squat with your chest up and stand. The band bites harder the taller you get, so the hard point is at the top, exactly where a barbell squat is easy. It is the way to train the pattern at home with no equipment. The classic mistake is too short a band, which forces you to lean forward.

Variants

The drawing shows one way of doing it, and the technique above describes that one. Almost every exercise has variants — standing or seated, the grip, the bench angle — and is still the same exercise: if you do it another way, write it in the exercise note and you will have it every time you train it.
