You are joking but I think you are right. High bar squat is just a compromise. If you want to squat heavy then do the low bar squat. If you want to stay upright, go very low in depth and emphase the quad then do the front squat. The high bar squat is just the boring middle child among squat variations.

@ninety14642 жыл бұрын
I've recently stopped doing low bar squats in favour of high bar ATG and there are so many benefits (for me at least). First of all, low bar squats have a higher systemic fatigue burden than high bar. Me personally (due to being tall and thus having longer femurs relative to my torso) I have to bend over quite a lot in the low bar to hit good depth which puts a lot of levarage onto my lower back. Having switched to high bar, I can comfortably squat twice per week without getting debilitating lower back pain/DOMS or feeling completely zapped neurologically. I can recover more quickly between sets so my workouts dont take so long - I can recover faster between sessions without compromising my other upper body and deadlift days - and I dont need to deload as regularly. It has taken me a while to get used to high bar as I've stuck to low bar for nearly 10 years now. Getting comfortable with the bar position and getting a solid brace took a few weeks practice. but now I've adjusted I actually enjoy squatting even more than I used to. The only downside is that my ego has taken a hit. I've lost around 1 plate per side for all my rep maxes. But for me, high bar is now superior. If I ever wanted to compete, then naturally I'd use low bar, but otherwise for me there is no point.

Incase you were getting at ATG high bar squats being a cause, theyre not necessarily. The majority of people can learn do to them without butt wink. Most of the time "butt wink" is caused my 1. incorrect bracing (forced extension of the lumbar spine instead of performing a proper valsalva with a neural lumbar position) 2. Short adductors (which cause the pelvis to be drawn into posterior tilt as they're stretched going into depth) or 3. Incorrect stance width which forces the individuals hip joint to move in a way it's not capable of. There are a few other reasons (like being overweight with a really big belly or having genetic hip malformations)

I stopped doing high bar squats because of the constant, debilitating hip pain that was caused as my hips came forwards at the bottom.

@Llamazing no actually you're wrong. The bar being placed closer to the axis of rotation (the hips) during the low bar squat causes less total torque on the back. Torque is force times length of the lever, force being the weight of the bar on your back, and the lever being the distance from the bar to your hips.

Make sure when you're doing you're squats, I noticed you go too deep causing your lower back to relax as you try to tuck your bum in to get low also bad for the knees, you also lose the constant tension on the quads. Going below parallel is perfectly OK but dont go too deep.
@EvanPilb
Жыл бұрын
ATG is better for the knees as it requires better ankle mobility, aka knees over toes. Butt wink can be an issue, but he doesn't have bad butt wink, and it's only really an issue if it is mobility induced. The reason people don't go below parallel is because of mobility restrictions. In my opinion, everyone should work on mobility issues instead of just forgetting them and doing barely parallel.

Bailing on a high bar squat is safer IMO because you’re never going to fail by falling forward and guillotining yourself, rather, you stay upright and sit at the bottom and just “hop out” from under the bar. Whereas low bar forces you into a good morning and is much riskier at high weights where you see guys snapping pelvis, tearing quads, adductors, hamstrings, breaking their backs, etc. it’s better overall.

There is actually science to support the superiority. Strength is specific to a range, and ATG squats improve performance in quarter and parallel squats, but the reverse is not true. Also, while overall quad activation may be similar, there is increased loading of the rectus femoris and vastus intermedius vs the VM/VL im the bottom position.

You are joking but I think you are right. High bar squat is just a compromise. If you want to squat heavy then do the low bar squat. If you want to stay upright, go very low in depth and emphase the quad then do the front squat. The high bar squat is just the boring middle child among squat variations.

I've recently stopped doing low bar squats in favour of high bar ATG and there are so many benefits (for me at least). First of all, low bar squats have a higher systemic fatigue burden than high bar. Me personally (due to being tall and thus having longer femurs relative to my torso) I have to bend over quite a lot in the low bar to hit good depth which puts a lot of levarage onto my lower back. Having switched to high bar, I can comfortably squat twice per week without getting debilitating lower back pain/DOMS or feeling completely zapped neurologically. I can recover more quickly between sets so my workouts dont take so long - I can recover faster between sessions without compromising my other upper body and deadlift days - and I dont need to deload as regularly. It has taken me a while to get used to high bar as I've stuck to low bar for nearly 10 years now. Getting comfortable with the bar position and getting a solid brace took a few weeks practice. but now I've adjusted I actually enjoy squatting even more than I used to. The only downside is that my ego has taken a hit. I've lost around 1 plate per side for all my rep maxes. But for me, high bar is now superior. If I ever wanted to compete, then naturally I'd use low bar, but otherwise for me there is no point.

Most of the time "butt wink" is caused my 1. incorrect bracing (forced extension of the lumbar spine instead of performing a proper valsalva with a neural lumbar position) 2. Short adductors (which cause the pelvis to be drawn into posterior tilt as they're stretched going into depth) or 3.

I stopped doing high bar squats because of the constant, debilitating hip pain that was caused as my hips came forwards at the bottom. Additionally, high bar squats really burn your lower back and are generally more grindy than low bar, which is not good if you plan to do deadlifts in the same session.

ATG is better for the knees as it requires better ankle mobility, aka knees over toes. Butt wink can be an issue, but he doesn't have bad butt wink, and it's only really an issue if it is mobility induced. The reason people don't go below parallel is because of mobility restrictions. In my opinion, everyone should work on mobility issues instead of just forgetting them and doing barely parallel.

Bailing on a high bar squat is safer IMO because you’re never going to fail by falling forward and guillotining yourself, rather, you stay upright and sit at the bottom and just “hop out” from under the bar. Whereas low bar forces you into a good morning and is much riskier at high weights where you see guys snapping pelvis, tearing quads, adductors, hamstrings, breaking their backs, etc. it’s better overall.

Just changed back to high bar squats and I can see the difference. I can generate more power, i feel more stable when descending and ascending. But overall i think it's just a matter of preference for most people.
High bar squats= intense lower back pain, low bar squats= 0 lower back pain, now I'm sure there are people where this is the opposite, but for me having the bar higher on my back makes it harder to maintain a neutral spine.
Nothing is superior to another excises. Just different. In that respect is a snatch superior to a high bar squat
low bar squats are like emotionally cheating on your person
That’s one way of saying Sumo sucks 🤣
i love this. i have always felt superior while i highbar squat and i love that u do as well
I admire the form of this squat. High bar, neutral spine and ATG. This is the ideal squat form.
One of the biggest arguments for doing high bar squats is that they won't wreak havoc on your upper body like low bar does. There are ways to minimize the strain on the arms and shoulders from low bar, but high bar is just a whole lot more simple and easier to learn in general.
There is actually science to support the superiority. Strength is specific to a range, and ATG squats improve performance in quarter and parallel squats, but the reverse is not true. Also, while overall quad activation may be similar, there is increased loading of the rectus femoris and vastus intermedius vs the VM/VL im the bottom position. In the words of Kool & the Gang, get down on it! ✌️
It stretches the quads more. That's it. Stretchy quads makes you a better athlete which makes you better at running from the law.
Question is. Is front squats morally superior to high bar squats? Hmm...
Deep highbar squat made me feelin like a superhero....
What about ATG low bar squats? thats what im doing since i cant to high bar squats because of my femur length vs torso length
“Why are they better, because they’re superior.” Damn you got em
Better off front squatting then high bar if you can’t get low bar. Too many people get hurt with high bar because there’s less posterior activation which should be the primary. At least with front squat it’s not loaded on your spine.
It’s amazing to see the disparity between size and strength. I’m built more like a body builder but can come close to squatting that much weight.
Whats better is to master both and do both. Low bar and high har are both great for what theyre intended.
