Love spending Saturdays at the squat rack when it’s too cold/wet outside for a ride.

Decided to do a slightly different video this time. More so I can better demonstrate the progress I am making.
Basically I went from being able to do only one rep at a time with 145kg to begin able to do five reps in a row at 145kg. I also went from doing one rep at a time at 155kg to doing 3 reps in a row at 150kg and doing rep at a time at 160kg. I was only able to get 4 reps at 160kg, but I'm still happy and see myself making great forward progress. I also increased my bench to 120kg, and it actually moved really well I was surprised I was able to pull three reps of in a row.
I was a bit worried coming into this work out, because I ended up ending my workout early on Friday due to a combination of working out a friend's gym - though I could make my workout fit the new gym, but it didn't and just a sense of feeling burt out. I think I hit a bit of a wall, so I took the weekend to relax and recover and it seems I've come back stronger. Just need a little room to breathe.
Another factor that I think helped with my strength increas is was, one: I had changed up my stance for both deadlift and squat, and I feel doing so has allowed me to lift more comfortably and put greater focus on my strongest area. Secondly I was coming of some back strain, so I had been lifting heavy on cable machines and doing multiple exercises per body part. I feel this focused heavy training really helped build extra strength and work my muscles in new ways. I may actually start using cable machines more.

How to use a Squat Rack
Also referred to as a power rack, this gym equipment is very popular in the fitness industry. It is easy to use and highly versatile, enabling you to train various body parts using the same equipment. Here are a few insights if you are setting up a home gym and need help with how to use squat rack. 
Squats
The most common exercise to perform on a squat rack is squats. If not done carefully, squatting can do more harm than good. To ensure that you are doing it right:
Stand straight under the bar and make your feet shoulder-width apart, with the bar resting on the traps.
With a narrow grip, place your hands behind the bar, hold firmly at an even distance, and remove it from the J-hooks.
With the chest up and out, squat down and push the knees to the sides and your hips backward.
During the exercise, break parallel by squatting far enough so that your hips are lower than your knees.
Lock the hips and knees at the top, and push yourself back up to the starting position. 
Barbell Lunges  
This involves holding the barbell with the traps while keeping the back straight. Once in position, take one-step forward and land with your heel, with the rest of the foot following. Flex the hip and knee of the front leg to lower the body until the back knee almost touches the floor. Return to starting point and alternate. 
Standing Overhead Press 
This is done on a squat rack while standing. Press the bar upwards above the head. To ensure you are doing it correctly, the barbell should be at collarbone height with hands next to the shoulders. Press the bar over the head until the elbows lock at the top, and bring it back to the collarbone height, and that is a complete press. 
Squat racks are a must-have piece of equipment at your home or commercial gym. It enables you to do plenty of effective exercises, easy and fast.

Comprehensive  Guide on How to Use Squat Rack
A squat rack is a piece of strength training equipment used for performing squats. It typically consists of a stand with adjustable upright posts and safety bars that can be set at different heights to accommodate different squat variations and user heights. The rack also often includes a barbell holder or rack to hold the barbell during the exercise. Squat racks are commonly found in weight rooms and gyms, and can also be purchased for home use.
Tumblr media
To use a squat rack, follow these steps:
Adjust the upright posts and safety bars to the appropriate height. The safety bars should be set at a level slightly below the bottom of your squat, in case you need to bail out of the lift.
Load the barbell with the desired weight and place it in the barbell holder or rack.
Position yourself under the barbell, with your feet shoulder-width apart and your back facing the bar.
Grasp the barbell with a grip that is slightly wider than shoulder-width, and place it on your upper traps (or rear deltoids)
Use your leg muscles to lift the barbell off the holder or rack, and take a step back to clear the rack.
Take a deep breath, brace your core, and begin to lower your body by bending your hips and knees, keeping your back straight and your chest up.
Lower yourself until your thighs are parallel to the ground or slightly below, and then press through your heels to raise yourself back to the starting position.
Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
When you have completed your set, carefully return the barbell to the holder or rack.
It is important to use proper form and to start with a weight that is appropriate for your fitness level. It is also a good idea to have a spotter or use the safety bars when performing squats. Now at Muscle Mad you can even shop gym equipments by Klarna and get the best deals.
Types of Squat Rack
There are several types of squat racks available, each with their own unique features and design. Some of the most common types include:
Power rack: A power rack is a versatile piece of equipment that allows for a variety of exercises, including squats, bench press, and pull-ups. It typically has four upright posts and a series of adjustable safety bars, as well as a pull-up bar and a barbell holder.
Half rack: A half rack is similar to a power rack but with only two upright posts. It is generally less expensive and takes up less space, but it is not as versatile as a full power rack.
Smith machine: A Smith machine is a type of squat rack that has a barbell that is fixed on a sliding track. This allows for more stability and control during the exercise, but it can limit the range of motion.
Squat stand: A squat stand is a simple, standalone rack that consists of two upright posts and a barbell holder. It is more compact and less expensive than a power rack, but it does not have the same level of safety and versatility.
Wall-mounted squat rack: A wall-mounted squat rack is a type of squat rack that attaches to the wall. It is a space-saving option and is commonly used in home gyms. It is limited in terms of exercises that can be performed.
Conclusion to using Squat Rack
In conclusion, using a squat rack is a safe and effective way to perform squats and other exercises. It is important to adjust the upright posts and safety bars to the appropriate height, use proper form, and start with a weight that is appropriate for your fitness level. It is also recommended to have a spotter or use the safety bars when performing squats.

Random squat video. Was testing out the safety bar. I wanted to see how it felt. I personally prefer a regular bar, but I can see the appeal of it. I'd have to do a little more research on the best way to use the safety bar.
