I will be faced with ~8-9 months away from a squat rack due to a deployment.
At my immediate access I will have a barbell with hex plates, a smith machine, leg press, dumbbells, machines, and a bench.
I know I have to train so my question is do I essentially learn to smith machine squat (in lieu of my current squat) or is there a different exercise recommendation in the months without a power rack?
I might know know the answer but it is frustrating that it’s all I have at my disposal and would appreciate the insight.
Thanks!
