subject: Do You Know What You Can Achieve Through Squat Exercises? [print this page] From our decades of experience in fitness, the very highly rated and effective exercise for stimulation of the body system for fat loss and muscle gain is squat exercise; at the top with it is dead-lifts exercise.
The reason is that squat exercises and dead-lifts exercises involves so many muscle groups when the body is subjected to heavy weight/load and thus stimulates great responses for hormonal releases than any other exercise done with weights. Recent university fitness researches has proved that squat exercise increases the development of our upper body as well as our lower body, though we may not feel the impact all that much on our upper body during the exercise session.
Do you want a body that is strong and excellent in function? An additional body mass? An improvement in athletic performance or loss of body fat? Variation of squat exercise and dead-lifts exercise are the best solution you can get. These are basically what are required for a powerful, strong and lean body. There is no need spending much of your time on cardio.
It is better to do squat exercises with free weights like kettle bells, barbells, sand bags and dumbbells. Your ordinary body weight is good as well. doing it with machines is not encouraged as machines does not allow for the correct bio-mechanical and natural body movement and thus a lower result is generated since the machines always help in stabilization of the weights which is contrary to what you get when done with free weights.
These are the three most popular squat exercises:
1. Front squats
2. Back squats
3. Over-head squats
For a general development of the muscles, loss of body fat and development of athletic performance, I advice you combine the three types of squat exercise, though; it may be during different phases of your workout.
Again if you have not been working out with any of the three, you can start your training with light weights and as time goes on you can add more weights.
You will be surprise at your result if the three types of squat exercise are combined and properly carried out.
