NOTES
The Smith machine squat will allow you to safely squat a heavy weight in the absence of a spotter. Just make sure that you use the safety pins.
Although great for allowing you to safely squat heavy weights, this exercise is not as beneficial as is the barbell squat because the latter recruits more stabilizer muscles and helps to improve your balance and coordination.
Keep your feet flat and your torso upright.
Keep your feet and knees pointing in the same direction.
