Barbell squat protection technology!

Fitness training is not a solo show. In many cases, you need a training partner. They can not only help you create the best training effect, but also protect your training safety.

　　Please remember: experience does not guarantee that you will not make mistakes in training, but an excellent training partner can wear a seat belt for you!

　　How to protect your training when squatting?

　　First of all, you can use equipment to protect your muscles by using Smith machine. The muscle strength trained by Smith machine lacks balance and lacks proprioception. We generally choose free weight squats to develop lower limb strength, but heavy barbell squats are dangerous, so protection technology is necessary Impossible.

　The difference between barbell bench press and squat is that the trainer lifts the barbell bar; in the latter case, the trainer lifts the trainer.

　　Protection technology:

　　1. The protector stands behind the squat, wait for the squat to carry the barbell, take his arms from the squat armpit forward to make a curl, put his hands on the outer edge of the squat chest muscle. Take a step back

　　2. The protector squats at the speed of the squat squat. When he feels that the squat is not strong or his legs are trembling, the protector locks his elbows, holds the outer edge of the squat chest muscle with his palms, and uses his arms to bend the elbow to keep the squat straight. At the same time, the protector uses the force of his legs to help the squat squat. When will the exercise be provided?

　　When will the exerciser be provided?

　　You may think that the exerciser does not need any help during the unloading of the barbell, however, training accidents occur more when unloading and loading the barbell pieces, rather than during the squat. Therefore, before the squat movement begins, the exerciser must be fully focused.

　　When the exerciser does a squat training with a large load, if he slows down and remains unstable, the exerciser needs to apply protection. The arms should be placed under the exerciser's arms and crosses his chest or shoulders. Using the correct technical movements can help the exerciser complete the last squat.

　　If the exerciser suddenly stops the movement (such as joints Discomfort, etc.), the sparring staff should hold the barbell bar to prevent the exerciser from causing a crush injury, and put the barbell back on the hanging device to place it.

　　　　　The key points:

　　　　The protector uses his legs to exert force to help the squats rescue the movement.

　　　The protector's arm locks and strengthens the squats to prevent sudden forward leaning or backward falls, reducing the risk of spine injury caused by too much weight.

　　　Tip: Protector should not extend his hands to the squats' armpits to support it. Because the armpits are rich in a lot of nerves, the squats' arms will become numb after being compressed, which will reduce the control of their arms, which can easily cause danger.
