Is it ok to go ass to grass if you have a butt wink? I no longer go ass to grass and currently stop my squat right before the butt wink to avoid injury which is just barely past parallel. What are your thoughts on this? For example how much butt wink is acceptable, is it based on body type... for example long torso with short legs or vice versa? So many opinions out there, I would greatly appreciate you clearing this up with a video or a response. Thank you Scott!

So I dropped the weight about 30 lbs now I do a 5x5 clean strict form my knees don’t cave in, I breathe properly. Best change I ever made

Oh my God the third point is a game changer. I'm new to lifting and started out with 5x5 program. It was going great until about the 6th week, after which I was having difficulty squatting. I plateaued. And then my form was increasingly getting incorrect. I didn't know that could happen. I had to halve my weights and restart from there.

Some people don't have the hip mobility to go ass to grass though, if they go all the way down then they get "butt wink" which is terrible for your lumbar, especially if you have 315lbs on your spine. But you should definitely break parallel and your ass should go below your knees. Can't stand these quarter squats.

@Michael Davis Yup, my physiotherapist said the same thing. The second your lower back curves inwards, you lose all tension. Proper depth is completely case by case. Same with the "push through the heels" advice. You want to be pushing from mid-foot. That ensures your weight is distributed across your entire foot. Better advice is to avoid pushing with just your toes.

You always know when Boston is in the house! I'm a beginner to the squat rack. I find it so intimidating (afraid of injuring my back, looking foolish in the gym, and practicing incorrect form) but after doing reserch I found that this the barbell squat is one of the highest ranking movements for muscle growth and strengthening. I am currently working on my ankle mobility becasue I find it so difficult to squat low without falling over. Thank you for sharing these great tips! Feeling a bit more confident now.

Last time I was breathing in on the way down and breathing out on the way up. I have just tried your way of breathing when I did some air squats and it feels better. Will try it at the gym next time.

Found this and man I feel that burn in my quads and ass. Thanks for this vid man. No Ego lifting every body!! Good luck with those gains!!!

Hi scott, nice video! I have one question, a lot of people, like Alan Thrall, suggest pushing through the entire foot and not focusing just on the heel. That allows you to keep the center of gravity over the middle of your shoe while performing barbell squats. What do you think?

This was a perfect video for me to learn to squat with a barbell. Explained everything to me. Loved it. Will execute these on my next leg day. Thank you

Good stuff.... BUT.... Rule #0: Squat in a power rack. Lose your balance once, and you will be messed up for life. I've squatted for 15 years now, all in a power rack. About 10 years ago, I lost my balance, fell forward and could not recover. The power rack saved my life. It only takes ONE time to change everything.

You don't need ATG, but "just" to go below parallel. ATG may be impossible for many, while going below parallel can be done by almost everybody (with some decent mobility). Also, you don't push with the heels, but with the whole feet. You have to feel the weight over the mid foot. Btw your squat looks gorgeous :D

@ScottHermanFitness

How low should you go on a squat? Let the stretch reflex tell you. For high bar, it's that bounce you feel in your hamstrings when you're ATG. For low bar, you feel it at parallel. Front squat, good luck, drop that booty to the floor. I swear it's harder to to do half squats, no reflex bumping you up.

Quarter squaters though, yeah anybody can load up the 7 plates and stand there twitching their hips. By anybody I mean every guy at my gym, plenty of chicks squat to depth. And it shows.

Thank you so much for this! I'm always trying to improve my form on the squat because I know how important it is but I've always been afraid of doing it incorrectly and causing some knee injury. I feel like I've got it now. Ive seen every video on YT about squatting, and in my opinion, this is the very best one. As for what else I'd like to see, my vote is for the deadlift.

Great job Scott I have been training myself for years and w others ! You don’t complicate things more power to you keep it up!

Good video but I have a few comments. 1. You don’t address the difference between high bar and low bar squats. In a low bar squat, a full range of motion is just down to where the crease of the hips passes below the top of the knee cap. I think it’s important to make this distinction as even though the high bar squat does work the quads more, the low bar squat incorporates more muscle mass over a just as effective range of motion and therefore increases the amount of weight you can lift. 2. I think it’s important to talk about pushing with the middle of your foot rather than your heel. While “heels” may be a good cue for some lifters who are using their toes too much, the bar is best balanced when it’s moved in a verticals line over the mid food. Moving forward or backward from this position could cause a lifted to lose balance and fall forward or backwards.

@ScottHermanFitness

6 жыл бұрын

1. Maybe you’re right, I should have made the distinction. I have an entire video on high bar vs low bar squatting. 2. The main point was don’t push just through the toes - pushing through the heels makes you instinctively push through the entire foot.

If you're going half way then more tension on the knee, 100% true I used to do them halfway and was wondering why my knees are hurting 😔 FULL RANGE OF MOTION is the way to go!

are the trainers who say your knees can't go past your toes full of it? (since the only way you can do ATG squats is if your knees go past your toes)

@ScottHermanFitness

6 жыл бұрын

Its ok for knees to track past toes as long as your feet are flat (no heel raise). It's a combination of a few "bad form" cues that make it bad for knees to go pass the toes, but if the form is spot on it is naturally to see knees go forward a bit when going ATG

@nudoetcrudo

6 жыл бұрын

You can go ATG without knees past toes. It depends on you leverages. Also, many people focus only on moving the knees forward and not also on moving the butt backwards.

Hopefully I'm planning to get back into the gym next month the first time in 8 months Have to disagree about ass to the grass depth of the squad Both of my kness are fractured going past half a squat my knees buckle and the pain in the knees is unbearable and usually I can't get back up Surely it should be squatting to fit your body rather than a rule Good thing talking about ankles and so forth as you might remember I was explaining that I have very thin ankles and my feet turn inward as well which I have to have support. Anyway great video and great content as usual

True. I mean, if you have an injury like yourself, you have to train as that injury allows. A lot of people don't think about the ankles but yeah, they are so important! Hope you get back in the gym soon!

Thanks for tip number 3 - general "convention" is to breathe out on the effort - i.e. when you straighten your legs and get your body upright, but that appears not to apply if you risk losing the form / strength in your core, as you say.

Thanks for your advice Scott!

Hey Scott, i dont know if you will be able to help me with this but, Whenever i squat i tend to feel shifted to one side. Not only when just coming down, but just standing with a bar on my back i can see in the mirror than its like my body is just standing on my left side. any advice. Thanks

It could be an imbalance.. it could even be that one leg is shorter than the other. That is actually more common than you think. Maybe go and see a massage therapist to see if you have any tightness that needs working through to make you stand straight.

you got a lot of great ideas and great knowledge of a safe and right way of things

Wonderful will keep this in mind the next time I squat

Notification received. Got here as quickly as I could. "Ass to the grass" 🏋️‍♂️ Great advice as usual Scott. Nothing less is expected. 👍

Hey scott, i have a question about sleep, can muscles repair themselves and grow without much sleep? And does it matter if i sleep at night or in the morning?

Studies say that the less sleep you have, the lower your testosterone levels can become. More sleep = more testosterone = more muscle

Depends what you mean by 'without much sleep'. Ideally I would say aim for 7-8 hours. 6 hours might be OK.. but when you start getting less than that on a regular basis.. that's not ideal. As Martin said, sleep is important for muscle growth and less sleep can mean you don't see the best results. 11 Tips To Sleep Better For More Muscle Growth!
