Squat with Bands
The Squat with Bands is a powerlifting movement that targets your quadriceps. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Squat with Bands
- Attach bands to the barbell and anchor them securely under the rack or plates.
- Set up in your normal squat stance with the bar on your upper back.
- Descend to depth — band tension increases as you rise, so accelerate hard out of the hole.
- Brace your core throughout; don't let the added tension pull you forward.
