One variation of the common squat is a pause squat. Pause squats have several benefits that make them as good as, or superior to, regular squats. In pause squats an athlete comes to a complete stop at the bottom of the movement then explodes out of the hole. This builds explosive strength, and can help you break out of a training plateau if your numbers are not improving. The root of any strength program must be leg strength. Increasing your leg strength will help everything from your deadlift to your bench press. I am really disturbed by the number of new lifters who concentrate on the show lifts like bench press and arm curls and neglect to do any leg work. I fell into that same category when I was young and it took me years to make up for the lost time. If you want a more chiseled chest, bigger more defined arms and deep cuts in your abs. Get squatting! There is no substitute! If you need more tips on how to squat correctly just ask. #teamTRAN
