squat

Back squats have been contenders in a decades-long battle against deadlifts, fighting for the coveted title of “King of Exercises.”

Now, the jury might still be out on the verdict, but either way, this quad-destroying exercise should be either #1 or #2 on your to-do list.

But here’s a (maybe not so) shocker: If your relationship with the gym’s power rack is so strained that you only squat once a week, it’s no wonder your legs look better in pants.

So … how often should you squat? Well, it’s not what you think!
