I am now very intimidated by squats! I watched the video but i still have questions. My boyfriend was trying to help me in the gym with them and it just turned into an argument.
Is there different ways/techniques that are still correct or only one way? Is it different for guys and girls? I'm only looking to squat about 50lbs, I like to do high reps at lower weight. The main confusion is wih the hand and bar placement. My bf was trying to have me place it on a spot on my back that felt like the bar was digging in , i like to have the bar a little bit higher but below the base of my neck.And also what about squatting to 90 degrees? I have read it both ways. I read that this is more of a myth and that you can actually get a better workout if you squat past the 90 degrees. In the past I just focus on keeping my head up, sitting back like I'm squatting into a chair and making sure my knees stay in line and dont bend forward as in going over the toes. Now I'm just confused and don't feel like doing them for fear of doing it incorrectly! Thanks for suggestions
