The Back Squat is a great way to improve leg and trunk strength.

To perform, place feet just outside of hips, grab the bar with full grip and place bar on back. The bar placement should be just under the upper traps in the nook right there. If the bar placement feels wrong on the neck, it is likely too high up. Squeeze the shoulder blades back, and and keep the chest tall throughout the squat. If you have limited shoulder ROM, you will want to grab the bar with a wider grip.

Take a big breathe and push your abs out and around, then squat as low as your range of motion allows then stand up, squeeze the glutes, and keep the chest up as high as you can.
