Squat Arnold style....

[Pet shop boys]

Who has done squat this way? (with shoes on of course)





woossshhhhhhhhh

[Heywood]

Sort of a hack squat on a Smith machine, used to minimize the back and isolate the lower thighs.

Exercise form, rather than weight, is the primary issue.

yes, me, i wouldn't recommend it

[wild willie]

This is an effective way to target the quadriceps. IMHO

Rather do front squats than those brosciency "squats"

I like the true full ROM squats like he does with Dave Draper (don't have the pic) where they wedge their heels. Awesome way to squat.

That pic is of Dave going rock bottom I have never seen one of Arnold going below parallel.

I sometimes use this typical style when I am very constipated..

do you have those books?

[Ursus]

I front squat first in workout now then do back squat.

Works very well.

Nice post Arnie 1947!!! The way squats were meant to be done! In my years in the gym, I've only known 1 other guy who does em like me

[Hulkotron]

Most getbiggers prefer tandem schmoe-squats.

This photo was when he was preparing for the 1980 Mr. O, his last contest... He'd stopped doing regular squats in favor of smith machine squats.

Although any type of squatting action will develop leg musculature, if you wanna have healthy knees (and back) for any length of time, do NOT squat like Arnold. Guy absolutely sucked ass at the movement.

[funk51]

do you have those books?

all three, they have since put out a condensed version of all three books in one. i actually bought the first one at an olympus gym till they decided against the franchise fee and renamed it olympic training center.

Very true, i used to try squat like that and my knees paid for it, have since used different methods and nowhere near the knee trouble

[dj181]

did they push HIT style training in those 3 books?

If you look closely at this picture, Arnold is buckling his knees. Which can lead to problems over time.

[Danjo]

This man knows how to squat!

Who is that spotter ?
