The belt squat hangs the load from a hip belt below the body, training the squat pattern with the quadriceps and glutes while completely unloading the spine and upper body. This makes it ideal for accumulating leg volume with minimal axial fatigue or for lifters managing back issues. Stand tall, brace the core, and squat to depth letting the weight pull straight down between the legs.
