How I would program to introduce low bar squatting for the first time: Block 1: Primary Day: If you run a top set + back-off protocol, I would do your top set in a low bar position, followed by high bar (or whatever position you originally did) back-offs. This will give you the highest specificity for low bar without beating you up with volume work. I would also keep secondary squats in your original stance. Block 2: Here, you can either do low bar completely on your primary day and keep your secondary day high bar, or follow the same protocol as Block 1 on your primary day and change your secondary day completely to low bar. Block 3: Fully phase in low bar for every squat day. Remember how I said low bar requires more shoulder mobility? So, how do you fix this? Simply low bar more! The best way to get comfortable in an uncomfortable position is to do it more often. You’ll get more mobile in that position the more you practice. #fitness #squat #powerlifting #gym
