This is really nice to SEE the repetition with multiple people. Different bodies shows different obstacles. Thx dude
I really love how the lapel mic is clipped to Alan's beard.
Love this kind of content. Using beginners and real people to coach. More please!
A couple of years a go when I was learning to squat, this was really useful. Now I'm teaching my brother how to squat and need to learn how to coach the movement... turns out this is the video that keep on giving!
If you can squat a bar, you can poop in the woods.

I always wonder how people poop in the wood if they can't properly squats and fall back during pooping . . . . not end well.

This is one of the best squatting videos I've ever seen
It's a miracle, this comment section is spawning squat and anatomy experts left and right
This was some good content! I would love it if Alan would do the same with deadlift and bench sessions
I like this style of video, I can see myself going through these cues in my head when i'm squatting. It's really helpful to see a visual representation of the starting strength book and helps put things into perspective watching other people go through the cues.
This is actually very helpful. Seeing the common mistakes being corrected, helped me reevaluate my form. Thanks Alan
Showing videos of you coaching people is really useful. It's good to see what mistakes actual beginners make and to get your advice on correcting the issues. Nice work :)
I love everyone hating on SS and Alan teaching the stylings of SS, keep doing you thing Alan, ill keep watching!
Thanks for all the help Alan. Really appreciate it. You've got a couple Marines out here in 29 palms following your videos and training tips. Semper fi brother
I think its awesome he is a starting strength coach now. Watching Rip's videos accelerated my training.
Using lots of people in this series is a great way to show a variety issues people run into when learning these exercises and a also a great way to teach.
Alan, you're a god damned treasure, been following you for a long time and you just keep getting better and better. Thanks for all the great content. My coaching is 100x better thanks to you and others, big fan of Rip too.
"that's hip drive" Alan sounds so happy when he tells him haha like he's told him a secret to unlock something haab
Thanks to you Alan I have fixed my squat and deadlift you've help me improve
How long before Alan starts saying hhhwhy?

FOOLISHNESS!
I'm a rah rah man, especially when training. I whole heartedly admire the way you coach. You're direct and kind at the same time. I'm working on that growth to become a more gentle trainer.
So... I wish I watched this video before I did my squat set today and tried helping my newb friends. Regardless I sent them your updated squat video and I'm learning a lot. Also, I appreciate that each of the trainees have very different body types. Makes it easier to understand how far some should lean over. Can't wait to try. Thanks Alan Thrall!!!
This was one of the most helping videos ever! Loved it! Keep it up man!
I finally got it! Thanks Alan, after many vids this one helped the most. You rock.
WE NEED MORE TUTORIALS LIKE THIS !!! Helps a lot !!!
Thanks to the people who agreed to have their learning moments filmed so that we could have this video to help us.
Best squat tutorial i've seen in a while! I'll repeat this again and again in my squat workout tomorrow: Hips UP!
Phenomenal content, Alan. Keep creating more of this.
Love the format of the video, I appreciate the effort in the editing. Very informative. Are you considering a class demonstration video like this for other big lifts?
This was incredibly helpful. Alan’s videos on the squat has helped me so much - thank you!!
THIS VIDEO HELPED ME SO MUCH! I was getting so frustrated, not able to squat 30# without feeling my form was off and I just felt like I was too weak for the bar. I watched this today and did squats at the END of my deadlift session with weight on the bar! I could cry 😭
This is so helpful! Your other videos is great, but this is helpful on another level
This was a very helpful video Alan, especially for people like me who are just getting into coaching people and have no experience. It gave me insight on how to coach people, whether theyre rookies or bit more experienced.
Thanks Allan for some reason this helped even more than the other squat videos you've done, which are terrific. I was making all the same beginner mistakes. You rock :)
This was SO helpful! I’m a new personal trainer and tomorrow is my first session 😬 so this was so helpful to see you coach multiple people in real time!!
Great work Alan! Love seeing how you really put yourself into it and give clear instructions - also not being afraid to give the good old slap on the low back to teach HIP DRAAAAAHVE
by far the very best squat video ever made!
I’ve been squatting wrong for 25 years! Lol. Alan Throll’s vídeos on the low bar squat have been insanely helpful the last few days.
every one of them improved noticeably. very helpful , will use tomorrow. thanks for your vids.
Damn man there isn’t better advice on the internet than yours, thx for helping people with those videos
Thanks Alan. Your videos help me a lot.
Everyone improved their form, great job Alan!
Great content great video Alan. Thanks for putting the effort in, and for presenting it to us.
Coath Alan is doing a great job over there. Getting passable squats of all these different people on day one.
Great coaching, they all looked pretty good by the end
Love your videos. Great content always
more of these videos Alan, good stuff
Excellent... now I can send zillions of people to this video... Thanks, Alan!
This is actually so helpful!!
This video really helped me fix my posture, i was having alot of problems leaning forward while squatting. Doing this at home with bar and videoing myself I was able to look for the position and movement Allen was asking these people for and with some time really straighten up my squat.
This video is gold. Thanks Alan.
I really don't understand all the hate for SS in the comments. I personally don't do EVERYTHING the SS way, but it's such a fantastic starting place to build skill, I don't see the problem here. When I first started studying Rippetoe's methods, I was a high bar squatter. I switched to SS method, and I sucked at it for a while, then I got better, and after a while I adapted into my own variation of it. It's well worth going through, even if you don't end up keeping EVERYTHING from the method.
This really helped Alan! Thanks a lot. This gave me some awesome cues to implement with people I coach
This is an awesome video, thanks Alan.
Really like these type of videos
This was a fun vid to watch. Very real world examples and classic of what you'll see at any given gym. Awesome coaching. Not afraid to say "too deep" or "put your knees over your toes." I'm no expert but given my knowledge I'd say you picked out all the major stuff for each person, just like you were supposed to. Also, girl in white top seems like a natural squatter. She seemed to be best built for it. Awesome vid. More please!
Keep em coming Alan!
Wow Alan, I learned so much from this. Thanks, you're awesome!
Thanks Alan! This was awesome. I learned just from watching you instruct real time....I hope to make it to your gym sometime in the future....I'm in AZ....but would love to check it out!
Awesome video, Alan! Thanks!
Alan, I really enjoy this style of coaching video. Can you do more videos like this for the other lifts?
This video is amazingly helpful! I've been trying to lead with my chest, instead of my butt even though this is supposed to be a leg exercise... I've also been trying to break first with my knees instead of both hips and knees breaking at once, because I've heard knees are supposed to break first, but it feels so unnatural to have them break separately. Both breaking together feels so much more natural and correct for my body. Thank you for this! I used to lift weights and am getting back into it. I used to never squat because I heard it was so easy to mess up and destroy your back. I was fine with deadlifting though lol. This video gives me the confidence to try squatting now that I'm getting back on the saddle!
When I first started lifting I just viewed the squat as a simple movement to train the legs. Just put the bar on your shoulders and go up and down. But it’s so much more than that. It’s such a complex movement. I’ve done more research on the back squat than any other lift and I’m STILL learning.
Retired USMC Infantry. Bearded brother with epic head mane. Irreverent, cynical, simply spoken. Strong in mind and body. Excellent instructor presence, delivery and proficiency. Yup. Allan Thrall is my new Man-Crush.
Alan you are an amazing coach
This stuff works for me, personally, with my unique personal issues. I love the low bar squat style. I do still go AtG, but for high reps and light weight. When I want to go heavy though, the Bill Starr/ SS method is one I have adopted, and it works for my body better than anything else. Love the videos.
Ur tutorial is always a big thumbs up.... Love you....
This helps me a LOT Alan, thank you bro
I have rehabilitated 15 people using the starting strength model and all of them have become beast after a year of starting strength. When physical therapy fails you or bodybuilding fails you you'll pay good money to be trained by Alan thrall or any starting strength coach. P. S. Mark rippetoe is a barbell strength god sent to us from the cast iron plate heavens😇😇😇
This is gold, thank you for sharing.
I like Allans new direct ss style of explanations and training but I hope he doesn't loose his personal style and unique personality which made his videos enjoyable
Thanks for the upload Alan. Easy to follow. Wish I knew this stuff earlier! cheers
This is helping me a lot with my low bar squats. Thanks man.
Great video! I learned alot watching you correct their form. I'm making videos of my squat form so I can verify what I'm really doing.
Please do some more of these. It would very helpful to watch you coach bench and deadlift.
Excellent training video. I like it
Great vid Alan. Thanks for teaching me how to squat!
very simple, sweet and ready to learn a good squat. thank you
I didn't realize this was the starting strength method but this is exactly how I squat. I've tried everything else and this is most comfortable for me
This video was super helpful!!!!! Very imformative.
Love this video, would love to see one for the deadlift, bench press and overhead press maybe!!!
This is insanely useful! This help me a lot 👍
Excellent Video! Thanks
Just wanted to say thank you. Your videos are informative while being entertaining enough to keep my attention. -skinny noob

Cool video!
thanks ALAN for sharing these amazing contents.love u from Azerbaijan
Nice video with a different point of view..much helpful
Thanks for the great Videos!
Good coaching video.
I'm in Canada. Sure would be great to have you as a coach. You seem to take pride in the success of folks you train. Very detail orientade. Makes the difference between injury and managing to squat 300lbs - 500lbs.
I am like the guy in blue. I did all the same stuff. super helpful to see him work through the sticking points

I'm linking this video underneath a video that I released today anout a recent incident when a creeper at the gym (who doesn't look like he has ever squatted) told me to do the exact opposite of everything I'm supposed to do. Thank you for the clear instruction!

I've helped alot of friends get into lifting, and coaching their squat is by far the most difficult thing I"ve ever done.
