    Olympic weightlifting squats and powerlifting squats have key differences in form. Olympic squats focus on explosiveness and lifting the weight overhead, requiring the lifter to drop lower below parallel. Powerlifting squats allow less range of motion and prioritize lifting the heaviest weight possible by dropping only slightly below parallel. Both exercises build lower body strength but target different muscle fibers and goals.
