The squat is a excellent functional movement that will build useful strength transferable to sport and every day life.The squat will hit all the major muscle groups of your lower body,hips,glutes,quads,hamstrings making it a compound exercise.As it is such a big lift you will gain some serious lower body strength and muscle and you will also burn a lot of calories.Whether it be a Back Squat,Front squat (which is what I'm doing in the photo) or even a Goblet Squat. Personally I think squats should always be in a strength training workout program.So If you are used to just sitting on the machines to do your leg exercises its time to stand up and get functional and squat.
