Squat & pull exercises

Squat & pull exercises are compound exercises that combine the squat with a horizontal pull.

Squat & pull exercises are an excellent way to develop total body strength and power. A high demand is placed on the core to stabilise the movement and transfer the power generated by the lower body to the upper body. Squat & pull exercises train the cross-body connection, that transmits forces from the ground through the leg and hip, across the SI-joint via the thoracodorsal fascia, into the opposite lattisimus dorsi.
