About Squatting (again...)

I am going to spare you the WHY, because I am talking about that on a regular basis anyways. You will have noticed that over the past few weeks, we have used the back squat on a regular basis as it is a great excercise for getting stronger (and becoming more useful in life in general). As a result, most of you have seen great success and once we have the numbers together, we will highlight these over the course of the next week. In the meanwhile, enjoy the quotes of one of the foremost authorities when it comes to barbell exercises, Mark Rippetoe. If you can take it, that is.
