Squats are probably the most underrated exercise for overall body, balance, and not falling off stages.

Mike drop!!! No pun intended....
So many factors come into play in squatting. Big air in the abdomen and chest, keep eyes up, engage the lats and pull the bar into your traps and don’t let it spin. You’ll know when it’s right because the stress will be on the legs and not on your back
HELL YEAH Mr. O'Hearn! This is THE WAY you should explain the squat ASS BACK not push your hips back like many others!
Everybody there is fortunate to have Mike share his knowledge live. I’ll be asking questions back to back to this man if I was there

Really great coaching, I feel like Mike fixed both of those peoples butt wink in their squats in like 10 seconds
There is so much knowledge in this video. Everybody and their moms should be watching this...even if they don’t lift weights. Seriously, this is golden and it’s unfortunate that people don’t realize this.

This Mike O’Hearn is too much, didn’t expect him to have this much knowledge been training all school since the early 70s. I thought I knew how to squat he showed me. Thank you Michael Hearn.
i like mike to be fair. he's a good dude using his time to teach people
Such knowledge is like gold, especially when you're getting older. Awesome stuff
As a professional classical musician there is so much I can relate to in this discussion. Here is obviously a true craftsman talking about, really, the core issues in any discipline about how to "better yourself". Teaching beginners and amateurs is probably the most difficult of all, because it requires you to have a profound understanding of both yourself and the other person in relation to what you are trying to acheive. Just lovely stuff!!
Im sorry for writing alot i just love wat you guys are doing and i keep trying everyday thank you guys
It's a great day and age to want to get in shape. The amount of knowledge that we have access to these days is outrageous. Back in the day we didn't know jack "squat"...
Thanks, coach!
Love it Mike! You're a great teacher
thanks for the vid. I was a life long diet and fitness enthusiast( lifting when young but never for power and/or size, just functional strength as basketball player then later competitive tennis. I was in great shape at 50 and figured I'd be able to "school" my kids on lifting ( one boy, one girl); but freakishly wound up 1/2 paralyzed; I lived when they said I'd die so not whining here, just saying thanks, cause I'm pointing my kids 17 & 24 to this for FORM, which I always was preaching to them as super-critical for lasting health and usable strength. So; thank you! all please remember even at our strongest and healthiest we humans are still vulnerable to the crazy things that can lay us low in this world = no one is ever "bullet proof." God bless!
absolutely loved this video so much profound insight. will diffiently implement tomorrow when i do squats
This was a fantastic video, great teaching through experience and consistency. Awesome
Mike, this information is gold. Even someone like me, who's been lifting for a few decades, still need to revisit the basics and learn how to properly perform these key exercises.
It’s all about longevity. Great advice
genuinely loved this video. I am a beginner and i really found this helpful.
By far one of the best videos you have made in my opinion. I feel like your teachings are made of Gold and Diamonds Please more videos big Fan of you/Mr. Longevity and the Fitness World
Great vid! Going to switch up my squat and slow down the range thanks!
This should have a million views.
Thanks a lot for the information. Due to your explanations, this morning I was able to do squats again even if my lower back is "broken"! Even with light weight it seems to me like heaven! Manu from Reunion Island!
All of this is very true, some of things is not too put your knees over your toes, especially on heavy weight, otherwise you can tear a tendon or something !!
Very good knowledge, thanks 🙏
Great video man. Very helpful
preaching king
Thanks for all this videos Mike so much stuff shared👌🏽💪🏽
This was excellent to listen to. Thanks Mike.
Thanks Mike!
I really appreciate the content Mike O’Hearn Produces. I appreciate the explanation and Education. I’m very much interested in longevity, with excellent technique, and Mike really takes the time to explain it to us. He is a true professional.
I have all the rest too and love it! But I’d love MORE Like this too PLEASE!!! 💪🏽🙌🏽👍🏽👌🏽
I love how he talks about ego lifting when he tells the guy to slow it down. Everyone feels they have to hurry and be first even though there isn’t a competition. I respect you more and find you stronger if you’re going slow honestly cause it takes more strength to go slow and control.
Legs are always No1. Great video Mike!
Thx for this apreciate it 🙏💪
I have all the rest too and love it! But I’d love MORE Like this too please!!! 💪🏽🙌🏽👍🏽👌🏽
Mike O’Hearn is the cerebral, methodical, Mr. Miyagi, squat whisperer. Yes. He’s all that!
Mike O'Hearn is my favorite influencer because not only does he have mark rippetoe level detail and Mike Isratel science he has a love of and respect for the weight room that is unmatched. You get the feeling he is actually a nice person in addition to everything else.
The Man) Ready, stady... Go! Thank you Mike)))
Bone density, connective tissue, tearing fibers, balance etc...I have a hard time taking this kind of advice from Mike. Sure, he looks great, better than I'll ever look at this stage in my life. And he's got a lot of experience etc...This stuff just isn't entirely true. And it clouds the overall point. Regarding squats: he starts the video very bullish on this being the right way to squat. But, at 8:22, he gets into the most important part. Squatting this way makes it predominantly a HAMSTRING & GLUTE focused movement! Finally. That's what people don't understand. The fact that your knee is NOT traveling forward means that the primary muscles being activated are your glutes. Your quads have very little involvement. He then gets into the difference between high bar vs. low bar etc...so I go right back to the beginning. This is not the "right" way to squat. It is an alternative way to squat. It very much depends on your goals and what you're trying to emphasize and achieve.

Legend.
The gym looks amazing! 😀👍
You explain something a million times to someone and they still only grasp a bit like most professionals in life they got there threw knowledge and dedication to grasp all the best forms to fit there body and lifestyle to become the greatest version of themselves, and everyone should do the same. Prehab, rehab, knowledge, work, rest, nutrition.
Amazing advice....pls bring more such videos on different exercises
I’m very happy your doing ok after the fall. I was concerned about you Mike. Sincerely, Big Rob

Mike o hearn is a cool dude.
Ive never particularly liked Mike but damn he spit like 40 years of knowledge on these people. Hope they got it. Ill add that almost all he said can be found in starting strength by Rippetoe. You want to age well? Squat and deadlift.
Keep it up Titan
Good info. Subbed!
Very good video. I will try this squat form since high bar squat always hurts my lower back after 8-10 reps
Squat is so addictive... because is one of the 2 most demanding workouts.
Two common mistakes people do when they squat: - crush their knees inward and start to stress and trembling which put alot of tension on the knees -bent over too much which put alot of stress on the lower back, just keep the chest up and back straight and use your legs to come up and down, ur legs r stronger than ur back Go to see how to squat on the old labs when the master "tom platz " himself talk about his favorite exercise "squat"
I dont usually squat in my legs workout, just legs extension and ischios curl, sometimes legs press, by the way thank u for share this video 💪💪

it's not bad actually. Depends what do you want from your squad really. I do it like this: one day per weak- high bar squad for Quads, one day: low bar for hams and glutes, and one day for leg press, extensions and hipstrusts (or you can go for hamstring machine). If you have big quads - you should squad with lower bar more. If you have bad quads- squad with high bard more. Depends if all you want is to lift more weight or develop certain muscles.

I CAN do this !
I want second part .. squat techniques for bow leg genu verum guys..
at 9:30 that guy made a great question, that mike just did not have the ability to respond in a professional away, being extremely rude to the guy, answering the question to the crowd without looking to the guy once, or making him questions about it, like "do you have lower back pain, or inflammation etc" to then frame his response, instead just flipped around and went to his comfort zone, without answering actually nothing, completely shutting the guy up because he totally shut down communication between them because he did not answer looking to the guy . to the 9:30 guy, you avoid over stressing the lower back by maintaining a high level of mobility and range of motion on your lower back, using lower back stretching technics specially after training and throughout the week, and good back posture throughout the movement, using correct squatting shoes etc etc there is a lot to be said about it. I am not a O'hearn hater, he is usually right about everything he says and is an impressive guy, specially for his age, but to each is own, he is great to train guys like him, but beginners, older people or populations with special needs he is completely out of his depth.
In which squat form are you guys usually stronger? (The hi bar squat vs the low bar squat) * btw great informative video from mike!
👍
Mike i think i would impress you how i workout so similar to how you do im not you tho and no where near anything but it is a journey and as long as we are changing like you said im no competitor im just a kid who loves wat you guys are doing sorry for the sloppy writing im no literature person LOL thanks again Mike💪💪💪😎😎😎💯
