Adjust the pins so that they are just below your squat depth, and set the weight on the pins. Throwing the weight off your back is a last resort (and sometimes not possible). A spotter can’t just curl 3 plus plate off your back nor can they easily help you up at higher weights if you truly fail. The rack shown in the video even has westside spacing, meaning you have one inch increments to adjust the spotter arms around your squat depth. I always set the arms at the highest level below my squat depth, so I don’t need to round the back to set the weight on the pins. Stay safe. Thanks for calisthenics content (been a fan for a while). But you might want to update your how to fail a squat advice…

Bro doesn't understand how safety bars work

Everyone’s looking up these vids after that 33 year old body builder died from a squat attempt. Better safe than sorry.

Just adjust the safety bars correctly. If the lift fails to go up, lower it to the safery bars. Don't throw it to the safety bars....

Bro never put your hands on the safety bars please, ik a guy at my school who got his finger chopped off from doing that

[eastontodd]

I have been told by my coaches to lean forward and let the safety bars take it

[ravenking]

Thanks man, always worried about that happening to me

i dont understand why not just sit down if you cant come up

[Enesprays]

also he almost made the guy tear his biceps

Well, the spotter should have read ‘the struggle’ from early. But to escape under failure with no safety bars ‘is’ to push the weight back while you go forward.

Bro almost shat himself 💀. Big fan sir ❤

🤔 How about squat over the safety bars? Are they not there to catch your failure?

[jakemccoy]

Austin is one of those lifters with bad advice a lot of times, but everybody listens anyway because of his results with his body.

Safety bars are meant to keep you safe. Have them just below your squat depth. If you cant squat it just fall down and the safety bars will hold on to the weight

[smushinga]

WTF YOU ACTUALLY thought letting go of the bar and grabbing the safety bars was the best idea 😂😂😂 I’m done !

[AnimusPrime]

I didn’t have a spotter. I failed a 315 squat and put my hands on the safety bars to push my up with my arms. The weight tipped and the plates cracked my hand like a fresh egg.

lift only what must be lifted, this is the correct way. Forget your ego
