[quote=Anonymous]Start with goblet squats. These are great for building the core strength you need for barbell squats and 60 lb DB will work well. Hold the DB with 2 hands, elbows down and shoulders pressing tight. You can make them more challenging by doing constant tension ones (go down, no pause at the bottom and come back up, but don't lock-out or stop at top), 1.5 squats- down all the way, up half way, back down, all the way up. I also agree that if you can dead lift you can squat. Before you go down breath in through your mouth to fill your belly and brace like someone is going to punch you in the stomach. This will protect your back. You can also start with box squats- squat to sitting position on a bench, stop and come up without using momentum.[/quote]
