Fix your overhead squat mobility fast!

The overhead squat requires an athlete to have great mobility throughout the body and excellent technique. When positioning is off, the overhead squat becomes a significantly harder exercise to perform. In this video, Dr. Zach Long takes you through a series of tests & adjustments to help improve your overhead squat technique.
Areas covered in this video on improving overhead squat technique:
- Adjusting squat stance
- Adjusting grip width
- Maintaining an active shoulder
- Ankle mobility

Glad to hear Jonny
Great video thanks, my OHS is mostly upright but I know I can do better! I passed all the tests but will try that last sitting exercise as I think it will work wonders!
What other overhead squat questions do you have? Comment below and I'll try to help you out!

Great content. What about a video on single arm DB/KB squat?
What about the hips? I pass all the mobility tests for ankles,lats, thoracic.

I’m confused. He said test ankle mobility, and sometime people sit back like they don’t have good hip mobility…… is it one in the same or was this a mistake?

Often people with limited ankle mobility sit back more in the OHS giving them trouble with positioning. But sometimes people with good ankle mobility overemphasize the "sit back" cue often given in the squat and unnecessarily squat with a very forward torso angle.
That and he is wrong about the shoulder mobility part. The lats externally rotate the shoulder and since you need to load your back to squat. You should focus on that 🙄

Nope. They are a shoulder internally rotator. They are STRETCHED with shoulder flexion and external rotation. But when they contract they internally rotate, extend, and adduct
