In this video, I’m focusing on speed squats using the Safety Squat Bar (SSB) to build explosive power, improve squat mechanics, and increase overall leg strength. Speed squats are all about moving the weight as quickly as possible while maintaining control and perfect form. This method helps improve the rate of force development (RFD) and trains your body to handle heavier loads with more speed and explosiveness.

Watch as I perform multiple sets with lighter weights, focusing on quickness out of the hole, full depth, and proper bar path. The SSB is a great tool for targeting different areas of the squat and can help with squatting confidence and mobility. Whether you're training for powerlifting or just want to improve your squat speed, this is a great session to add to your training routine.
