Back Squat

To protect the spine, it is vital to avoid putting the barbell directly on the vertebrae, but to enable the upper back muscles to serve as a cushion on which the barbell can rest. Like the Front Squat, it’s important to make sure you’re not bothered by the barbell on your back and have all the success points in mind for your perfect squat.
