In this video, from personal trainer Alistair, discusses why he thinks squats are the best exercise overall.

There are many different variations of squats that you can do. They all present similar challenges and slightly different challenges, but in the end they all are great to do on a regular basis. Our opinion is that free weights barbell or dumbbell squats are the way to go, no questions asked. This variation offers the most challenge and is going to give you results up to 50% faster. Not only will it give you faster results but you will be strengthened in a manner that mimics everyday demands on the body.

Here are our reason why squats are the best:

???? It trains your balance and control to be able to reduce the chance for injury during everyday activities.
