What is a weight lifting exersise equivalent to doing squats?

Question

i need an excersise that builds leg muscles for baseball, but i don't have a squat rack, so what's something that works the same muscles as squats?

Answer 1

do squats with dumbells.

or try squat lunges.

or try the feared man makers.

you take dumbells and you do a push press to get them over your head. then you do a squat with the dumbells over your head. then put the dumbells on the floor and shoot your legs out then do a pushup. then stand back up with the weights. thats one rep

Answer 2

Wall squats work really well. You put your back up against the wall and just sit as if sitting in a chair and then hold it as long as you can. Also, lunges is a very good workout as well. Try doing them uphill for a more advanced workout.

Answer 3
