A big difference between a traditional back squat and a front squat, safety squat bar squat, or (in this case) Transformer bar squat is that the lats are shortened with a regular back squat. This helps build the core stiffness needed to move bigger weights, but it can come at the expense of long-term shoulder health in some lifters. Specialty bars like this have helped me keep heavy squatting in my training in spite of an old tennis shoulder injury that was scheduled for surgery (which was postp

Knee Hug to Bowler Squat is a nice way to progress a classic bowler squat. Reach a little lower down to progress it a step further. This drill is a great challenge to hip mobility, core stability, and single-leg balance. #cspfamily #corestability #hipmobility #balancetraining | Eric Cressey

The split stance kneeling adductor mobilization is a great hip mobility exercise, especially if you appreciate the functional anatomy involved. Check out the voiceover on this video to learn more. I invented this mobility drill back around 2005 after studying up on the functional anatomy of the adductors and trying it out in my living room.
