  • In this video we discuss how to truly understand the mechanics of the squat. This involves learning about torque and how it is generated at our different joints during movement.

    Thank you from the Korea! Korean Utubers are teaching people only dependent on their experience not on science. I finally figured out how to protect my knees! I'm glad that some one did his job!

    I so appreciate your channel and am glad that I found it!!!! I am recovering from a rotator cuff injury but I have always struggled with proper form on the squat. My plan is to begin immediately using some of the exercises that you suggested in some of the other videos to help me with dorsiflexion! Again, thanks so much for your thorough explanations as well as the visuals to further help me understand the science behind the squat!!

    AHH! Why do you crumple up these beautiful drawings?! :)
    Awesome work. WOW seriously the best explanation of moment and torque I've ever seen. Going to share this with my students and incorporate into a biomechanics lab analysis tomorrow!

      I don't think he drew them. It's probably from an app. But the info in this video is very good! :)

    Great video. At some point could you please do a squat tutorial video for us unlucky lifters with long femurs/short torso?

    Great video. do you have a video that explains why when doing a front squat without weights a person may be shifted forward and looks as if they are leaning or almost falling over?

    Science-ish...
    BTW, The difference between front loaded squat and back loaded squat is really more important with regards to the balance of the loads or torque about the ANKLE point.
    Very nice drawings.

    3:20 - "The bar position is above the middle of the foot". This is actually is not true. Your body weight splits not evenly to the front and the back. More weight will go to the back from the bar, which in turn will force the ber a bit forward to compensate this.
    If you film your squat from the side you will notice that the bar will go a bit forward as you go down - not in the streight vertical line.
    This is the common misconception with squat you should be aware of.

    I get the ideia but, as an engineer, it hurts a little bit to hear "the distance of moment arm" being mixed up with the angle of the joints...

    please do not waste so much of good paper, it takes a lot of effort to make paper the real thing is it effects the environment a lot. There are people out there who do not get any notebook and yo you wasted so many good pages.
