I’m a bit unclear on what a double-hand shoulder squat’s supposed to be and the internet’s giving me different answers. : / Is that basically just a squat with two dumbbells?
Hey Kaia! It’s a squat with a weight on one shoulder, with two hands for stability.
From Dave:
The double hand shoulder squats are intended to allow the athlete to up the weight that they are squatting. If the weight is in the front rack for example the limiter will be the shoulder strength to maintain that position. With the bell on top of the shoulder, the athlete can do more weight because the weight is supported on the whole body, not just the front rack. Double hand is for safety so the bell doesn’t move too much and accidentally force poor positions.
