Açıklama
Belt squat is a specialized squat variation performed with a belt and weight system attached to your waist. This exercise intensely works the lower body muscles while reducing pressure on the spine. It targets the quadriceps, glutes, and hamstring muscles, making it ideal for those experiencing lower back pain. The weight being positioned close to the body's center of gravity provides a stable movement. It is a safer alternative to the traditional back squat. It is an effective option for those who want to train with heavy loads.
