The Squat: Explanation and Information
"In strength training, the squat is an exercise that trains primarily the muscles of the thighs, hips and buttocks, hamstrings, as well as strengthening the bones, ligaments and insertion of the tendons throughout the lower body. Squats are considered a vital exercise for increasing the strength and size of the legs and buttocks.
Squats are a competitive lift in powerlifting."

  22. Squatting should be in every routine. I am a hometrainer and I do squats but I can't go up in weight cuz I neither have a rack nor any other safetything.
    Well at least I go for reps :P
