Fit and fine by Kamal Singh CSCS: Do you even squat, bro?

It might sound simple but this exercise has different variations and impacts

Anybody who trains in a gym would say what is the big deal about a squat? Such a simple exercise – sit down and stand up and if you can, then add external loading in the form of a barbell, dumbbell or a kettlebell. No matter what you do, it still entails sitting down and standing up. But I wish it was that simple because I am going to show you how to do different types of squats. To be very clear, these are variations of the back squat. I am not talking of front squats, goblet squats, hack squats etc.
