back sqaut question

[Spaazkaz]

Does anyone else step forward out of the back of the rack and then step backward to replace the bar on the rack. in most form videos I see people stepping back off the rack. Am I doing it wrong or at risk of injury.

 

[Mercere]

Never ever ever ever do that again... Yes, you are doing it wrong and yes, you are at a risk of injury. Just step back out, step forward in.

Why?

Why?

You can't see the rack. You will be fatigued after a set of heavy squats, if you misjudge the height or the distance of the hooks it can result in a catastrophe.

yea, do not even think about doing it that way for just the reason mercere stated.

agreed step back you will have much more confidence in where you are going especially when you start carrying around the big weights.
