You got it, chief.
From this video I have learnt how to perform correct squats by practicing daily it become easy to me thanks bro
1. Sit deeper as you can in your lower position; 2. Find comfortable position of your foots and laps; 3. Stand up; 4. Yeap, this is your optimal position for squats, cause you have comfortable position in the lowest part of it. Have a nice day)

I just almost injury my hip flexor before I saw this video. This is great

Facts doing a straight squat doesn't give you the best alignment driving the knees outward a bit gives you a better stable force for better impact
Very good advice thank you very much!

ok i’ve been squatting wrong for months and my knees have been killing me and know i know why!
Really helpful! Thank you 😊
Thx needed that it's painful not knowing proper mechanics even with the suggestion of not having knee over feet when bending
ty so much spread the knees best tip ever
Thanks gonna do it
thanks buddy... ❤️
It’s really to get the femurs out of the way of your hips and torso, prevents hip impingement and increases ROM
Thanks dude
thank you so much
Thankful❤
Thanks dude, im having difficult trying to accomplish a regular squat... And even hurting myself because of that.

Went to look this up for my job as a janitor. See, I wanted to squat instead of bending down when cleaning toilets, but I also didn’t want to mess up my knees more from bad lunges in high school. Plus, I was concerned if I leaned forward too much that could mess something up. However, it looks like and feels like I’m doing it right considering I feel stable and only feel sore and not pain. Sore as in my unfit ass actually doing physical work.😅
Something I struggle with is aligning and strengthing the feets
bro started hitting the griddy mid squat
😊 thank you
Yeah this feels better
At first i thought maybe i was doing it wrong since many people say its hard but i feel easy af. So i intentionally pressured myself into more painful way only to figure out im actually doing it WRONG
Good video
Super
I’ve just started doing squats and have noticed afterwards that the bottom of my back has been in pain. I guess I’m putting too much pressure on my back. This video helped, not looking to break my back.

My vmo (right leg) hurts a lot since my last leg workout. Mostly feel the pain after the workout. I believe it's from squats but I don't know what I did wrong. I'm doing PPL twice a week so maybe overuse but I've heard of lots of others doing squats every other day...
One on deadlift pls
It helps if you actually angle your feet at about 30 degrees instead of straight forward.

My mom can do it since in her childhood she had those floor toilets but in Canada we got those sitting ones so when I was a kid I could never do it in my life so I gotta learn it 😢
Also I heard using hip bands around the knee works too when squatting
Also when done correctly enables spinal loading which somehow makes you taller. Comment if you don’t believe me.
Can you do a video about knee hyperextension ? Ive been suffering for 4 years now 😭😭😭

@@Nebula_ya That will definitely work up to a certain point. I also have flat feet and really increased my foot arch strength and stability by doing this. However, I have also seen people with severely flat feet that have wayyyy flatter feet than I and I doubt that this will work well for them.

Many great tutorials here on KZread. My favorite exercise is put a coin under where the big toe attaches to foot and try to move it closer to you without rising you foot. The coin is not really necessary but it may help. You'll activate those key feet muscles Then focus on every step through your day. Take small steps and rotate your legs outward slightly as the foot is in touch with ground, the point here is to support the arch. May feel a little like learning walking again but it's all right Toe spacers improve stability of foot, not necessarily weak arches but try to push your knees outward from big toe. This is great for knees because naturally our legs are curved and lack of support from feet increase unnecessary load on knees
Can you explain how to use steel clubs for shoulders mobility? Like seen in some of Papa Swolio's shorts.

One thing I want to say is that not everything works for everyone, especially for squats, people have different positions for their knees and hips, and different bone lengths, what you should do is sit in a deep squat position and and stand up from there, the most comfortable position is probably the best for you
Just read starting strength lol
Dont now if its bad i can barely bend all the way down i probaly need to stretch a bit more
Thanks for your video...
