Barbell Squats are Great for Strength and Conditioning

There really isn't a better exercise you can do for overall body balance, mass and conditioning that the barbell squat. When squats are performed as part of your leg routine you will feel your overall strength and conditioning increase almost immediately. You will also have more energy and stamina for the rest of your workouts and every exercise will seem that much easier to do.

If you've never squatted before start out with a light weight until your form is perfected. Proper form is imperative for barbell squats. If you do not have good form not only will you not work the muscles you're supposed to but you will leave yourself susceptible to serious injury as well. So go ahead and squat and reap the benefits of the best overall exercise there is!
