Hey guys,
I'm currently doing squats with only lowering weights about 20 cm (8 inches). If I would go a bit lower, the weights has to be a lot lighter, otherwise I cant do it. Also, the lower I go, the more stress I feel on my lower back that could transform to slight pain the next day. I want to train front thighs with this exercise, glutes are unimportant. I also do leg extensions along with squats.
Question is this: should I do go lower with lighter weights while squatting or keep it as it is?
Thanks!
