high Bar vs. Low bar

>>42126225
Depends

High bar is just quad isolation, basically a leg press

Low bar is a true compound strength exercise

Aren't you meant to go bellow parallel with low bar?

In terms of muscle activation they're the same.

Moving the barbell an inch and a half down your back doesn't change the fucking lift, it just changes leverages.

are you a powerlifter? low bar.
are you not a powerlifter? high bar.

Front squat

They both have great benefits tbqhwyf

Everyone has the flexibility to do a low bar squat to parallell. But thats not the case for high bar.

And in the end, you should do both

High bar. The shit low bar puts more emphasis on can be worked with RDL's and Deadlifts. Do high bar for quad strength, switch to low bar 2 - 4 weeks outside of a comp if you're actually competing.

You could work the same muscles as tje high bar with a front squat combined with low-bar.

You can do that with any exercise. But That doesnt mean its better than another

That guy's low bar seems off to me, his weight is too far forward -- but then again I don't do low bar.

If my Goal is just to build Mass, what would be better?

High bar, taking that you do your deadlifts too. Low bar mimics the deadlift movement pattern and hits your quads less
