| Registered User | Box Squats bad for lower back??? So I asked this guy in the gym to spot me on my box squats yesterday and when I told him what I was doing, high box squats, he said that their bad for my lower back. I blew him off because I realized he was a trainer there and I don't care much for most trainers in gyms. Has anyone had any problems with their lower back or anything else for that matter when doing box squats? The box squats I was doing were the ones where you sit down fully and then stand up. |

| Registered User | I've done box squats for years and never had a problem with lower back?.. FYI.. I'm sure you know... Keep strict form throughout the exercise.. and don't relax your core when sitting for the squat.. |

| Gold Member | The only way you could hurt yourself is in your form, that box won't hurt you. Some gym trainers know their stuff, A LOT DON'T Samuel, CSCS Controlled Labs, Sponsored Log; Blue GENE http://anabolicminds.com/forum/suppl...ontrolled.html |

| Registered User | Do squats wrong, and they're bad, do 'em right, and they're a religious experience. But you already know this. Don't even get me started on trainers. (and I'M a trainer) ( Or used to be, at least. The ignorance finally got to me, and I had to get out.) Every day is a good day to go balls out on the offensive. |
