Are you squatting?Squats, back and front, are one of the best exercises you can do. They develop strong, powerful legs while also being amazing for gaining mass. While the popular barbell back squat is awesome, front squats should also be considered as a viable and effective leg exercise. While having the bar being held in front of your body as opposed to behind, more stress can be placed on the quads as opposed to the glutes. It is also a bit easier to maintain a good spine position.
