Barbell Bench Squat With Chains

A squat variation where a barbell is loaded with chains to provide changing resistance as you rise and lower. The chains rest on the floor at the bottom and lift off as you stand, increasing load at the top range. Maintain a firm stance, keep your torso upright, and descend with control before powering back up. This variation boosts leg strength, core engagement, and stability while improving power through the full range of motion.
