Bar Position:</STRONG>&nbsp; A very common mistake for athletes who squat is placing the bar too high on the shoulders.&nbsp; In fact, many athletes place the bar right on the neck.&nbsp; This hurts, so they'll use a barbell pad.&nbsp; For most athletes, this also affects proper balance for heavy squatting.&nbsp; The vast majority of athletes will squat more and squat more effectively with more comfort when the bar is placed lower on the shoulders as shown in figure 9.&nbsp; Only a very, very small percentage of athletes will be able to squat&nbsp; more effectively with a high bar placement and this is because of structural differences in bone length and tendon-muscle attachments.</P> <P align=left>Some power lifters will place the bar extremely low on the shoulders.&nbsp; Sometimes the bar may be as much as four inches from the top of the shoulders, which is against the rules.&nbsp; For some lifters, this may give a slight anatomical advantage or the advantage may be experienced because of a heavy, tight lifting suit or even lack of flexibility.&nbsp; Whatever the reason, extreme low&nbsp;bar placement squatting will detract from overall leg development which is obviously bad for an athlete.</P> <P align=left>Most athletes will be able to find a natural groove on the shoulders when they come under the bar in a proper position.&nbsp; "Don't put the bar on your neck; put it on your shoulders.&nbsp; Find a groove."&nbsp; In almost every case, if you say these technique cues, athletes will be able to have excellent bar placement during their squat.</P> <P align=left><STRONG>C. Taking the Bar off the Rack:</STRONG>&nbsp; I've seen high school athletes get all psyched to squat and get their shoulders 2-3 inches under the bar.&nbsp; Then, with an explosive movement, jam their shoulders against the bar.&nbsp; Well, jamming your shoulders against a steel bar from this 2-3 inch space will cause the athlete to bruise his neck or shoulders.&nbsp; Besides hurting, it is unlikely the athlete will have the bar placed on his shoulders correctly.</P> <P align=left>On the other end of the spectrum, I've seen athletes wimp a bar off the rack.&nbsp; Many times this athlete will not be in a good solid squatting position as he backs up to a ready stance.</P> <P align=left>A far superior way is to come under the bar in a great solid proper power position, making sure everything is correct.&nbsp; Get the bar in the groove on your shoulders.&nbsp; Look straight ahead.&nbsp; Spread the chest.&nbsp;Get in your athletic stance. Now, this next technique point is most critical.&nbsp; Get your athletic stance directly under the bar.&nbsp; Many athetes will stand&nbsp;a foot back and lean forward.&nbsp; This is asking for tro]_X= q61LH`sb$80 xN_PO-hQ~ᝥ|}aܐ*52.\Hk6Ę`Sg59"%,e"&A5”n4-Z\)# cEjTj(EmpA܃d E"+ly* aN}?Ϧ)RsQҸSF=NPeҵo~ -#j}M'Cp *@;Ӷ-n%30SSֿ< 1aB:qRw|RFSCިƮ mʠГ~eeTժ18gTF5'$(-W\xzWrI8c;aw?P/~CzOS )'y'ZU G??T>cOh cMNBotƕN݈'&_~[N>sb2:/OӇ/O8 KYAy!2O _3nP ?a _فrf29 c zeCNaCibEu2ڕ<9UJr'bGqlhGˡhryᏥli={teP(t'*8'W*^DrN tv~tʻF"$3-:?ݺWE>dd,w"$T:#|POXl&TW~U^jYY㍤ٌjXDTH;o%ݫ_U O bjRh܊j(NvŘ\+REiᖻoLmE:ހRp%SƞezW8EN|; :>"0IN)`(ӗCw'%Kkqcs!~B)T0$柣Α[i`H xF;S;O-Q+F;a^r PcJuA? yv[USy!25_$r}GNWBd$rT*ȯ$Sq PFf{ B]XK\'FYv6ѳwߓl減 =)~(hz[#T%OBTi8^_rOR^|WgӠ{{cM<vY=swl5=#jn(@'}bB{xvƕ.LP? )Leޘҧڟ- z88~ @`R
