    Low Bar Squat

    I was low bar squatting today and a guy came up to me and said I should switch to high bar because low bar will give me a hernia in my back. Is there any truth to this?

    Not if done right. Don't think either would give you a back hernia.

    Low bar is actually easier on my back, but I can't go as deep as doing high bar.
