π Squats make things hot. When building a beautiful physique it helps to be a little bit basic. Doing a smith machine squat especially with weights is a regular move thatβs going to make a not so regular looking π body. Weβre going to raise the bar just as I am pictured here. Since the smith machine is on a fixed bar path, you need to place your feet a little forward in front of your body. To be precise it would be about 3 to 6 inches forward from where they would be in a regular free range barbell squat. Position yourself correctly, align that spine and neck, donβt look up while lifting. Act as if youβre sitting back into a comfy chair, and squeeze on the way up! Youβve got this! Letβs shoot for 5 sets of 8-12 reps depending on how heavy youβre going. If youβre using heavier weights then aim for a few less reps, and vice versa. Letβs take it on down to the ground.
