For high bar squats, place the bar on your trapezius, just below the base of your neck, use a shoulder-width stance with toes slightly out, and keep your torso upright. Aim to squat to parallel or deeper, ensuring your knees track over your toes, and inhale deeply before descending, exhaling as you rise.
For low bar squats, position the bar lower on your back, take a slightly wider stance with toes pointed out, and lean forward more. Focus on driving your hips up as you ascend and squat to parallel or just below while maintaining a strong core brace.
General tips for both include doing a thorough warm-up with dynamic stretches, wearing solid, non-compressible shoes, and progressively increasing weight. Ensure you rest 2-3 minutes between sets and incorporate recovery techniques like stretching and foam rolling.
