Bodybuilding Workout Programs
If you’re not gonna squat, get
out of the squat rack!
Has
this ever happened to you? You hit the gym early in the morning,
all pumped up for a great session. It’s leg day and you know what
that means, so you put your serious face on and trudge into the
gym. Only to find that some 16 year old pipsqueak is standing in
the squat rack doing bicep curls!
I’ve
got nothing against 16 year old kids in the gym, trying to improve
their bodies. I used to be one of them myself, once upon a time.
What I do hate is when those kids spend their time in the squat
racks, doing bicep curls. They’re called squat racks for a
reason.
And
it’s not just the young guys, oh no, this is a far bigger problem.
People of all ages think it’s fantastic to use the squat rack to do
bicep curls. Is it because you can leave the barbell on the
supports so you don’t have to actually bend down to pick the bar
up? Probably.
If
you’re one of these people, stop doing it. This is what you need to
be doing instead. Head into the squat rack and load up a bar with a
good weight for you. Get under the bar and then start squatting. I
guarantee if you only made this change to your workouts, you would
see startling results.
At my
local gym, I love it that no one squats. Apart from those idiots
who do their bicep curls in it, I pretty much have it all to
myself. But when I’m trying to be nice (And that’s not very often)
and actually help people out, I tell people squatting is a must.
It’s such a powerful exercise, you would literally be a moron to
not do it.
The
thing that holds people back is pain. I won’t sugar coat it. The
squat, when done correctly, takes a lot of effort and a fair bit of
discomfort. But it’s this pain and discomfort that forces your body
to grow, so unless you can get out of your comfort zone and push
through the pain barrier, you’re going to be in trouble.
So I
hope you now realize what you need to be doing. If you are one of
those pesky guys doing bicep curls in the squat rack, stop
immediately. Quite simply, if you don’t squat, you’re really
holding yourself back. So go and do it!
