That FFE split squat totally opened up my hips like never before!!! I always thought I just had bad ankle mobility even tho when I did the wall test I tested okay. Thank you so much
Thanks a lot for all your contents! Should the exercises in the videos be done on both sides? Any specific reason for you demonstrating these all I the right side?
Towards the end of the video, there's a caption in the upper left that shows the following: Wall Squat: 2 sets of 8 breaths per side Side lunge: 2 sets of 15 reps per side Goblet squat: 1 set of 12
Hi Connor. Love the rich content you provide everyone -- thank you! Question about pelvic motions: when the pelvic bones internally or externally rotate about the sacrum, what other motions accompany this? I.e. with internal pelvic rotation, does the pelvis always tip back into posterior tilt and vice versa?
Thank you so much its really an eye opener about squat depth, 🤔i hope to see results faster and better. NB: forgive me but can some body comment on how cute Conor Harris is 😋😋😍😍😍💕💕💝💘 takes my breath awaaay💫💕
Great video which explains very well the problems I have with my squat. One of these is that I have flat foot, and identified pronation/arch collapse as a faulty pattern, while it's part of the movement. BTW what is your take on using a pad under 1st metatarse when one does not have a correct tripod ? (for example if I walk barefoot for 1h, I have dirt underneath the 2nd to 4th metatarse but the skin underneath my 1st and 5th metatarse is clean) BTW2: I bought your mobility program and am doing my best to benefit from it! :-)
Glad it helps! I would be partial to using more of the arch reference rather than only the first met head. If you are going to support the met head, use a very, very low elevation to prevent pushing your foot into too much supination
Hi Connor, Unrelated to this vid, but question in general. I have a horizontal line on my belly, wanted to ask if you could help me understand how to address it. I can email you a picture of what it looks like? And get a private consultation if possible?
Any other suggestions besides what’s given in the video to achieve a full squat and keep heels down? My son is a baseball catcher (I’m still a PRI novice but I believe he’s a PEC) and he wants to be able to squat lower but even in a partial squat he has to go onto his toes. I’ve been doing a lot of 90/90 hip lifts with him and trying to have him do heel elevated squats. Thank you
1. stretch calves calmly, relaxed. 2. practice squatting with a rolled up yoga mat under his heels. Hold to stretch. 3. same as 2 but bring hand, fingertips, to ground behind you for support and knees forward (opposite body) a little until a reasonably challenging stretch is achieved. 4. practice Malasana yoga pose, use a rolled mat under heels if needed, also practice without mat sometimes. Hold 30-60 sec, rest. 1 - 3 reps. Best wishes.
Try having him do some backward walking. I used to only be able to do full squats by hanging on to the front lip of our sink. It also was needed to get back up. Since I started walking backwards I can almost do a full Asian squat and get back up unassisted. I was just shy of 70 when I started this journey.
I've been getting a pinch in my right front pelvic area for years. I can bring my left knee to my chest but the right it hurts. I have to let my knee go to the outside and it still pinches a little. I can't squat deep or sit "Indian" style at all, it's too painful.
I watched some of your videos and in most you emphasizes correct pressure distribution on the sole of the foot. Why are your patients wearing shoes for the exercises? Wouldn't it be more beneficial if they'd do these barefoot?
I think you really know what you are talking about but I find your explanations a bit confusing. I don't think I trust myself to try the exercises without supervision either because there is a lot of subtlety to bear in mind. But you've got me thinking about the mobility of my pelvis, which is a start 😂
Hi sir, I NEED YOUR ANSWER FOR MY QUESTION * If i sit in bow & arrow position, my right knee goes down more than the left knee and also right foot heel rotate externally and face upwards. * My right foot size is larger than left foot size. * My right back is bigger than left back. * my right hip is hiked up and my right leg also longer. IS THESE CAUSE WHAT PATTERN SIR??????? Please reply for me sir............
That's not a good explanation at all How deep you can squat is all about how much your femurs can internally and externally rotate, which are actions guided by the pronation of your feet. To dig deeper into the subject: Conor Harris has a great article "how to squat deeper"on his site with a list of exercices with unique variations to do to improve it. Also it's worth noting that barbell squats prevent you from getting deeper with how the barbell forces you to extend your bavk

Great to hear!
I need to try this. Squatting beyond parallel is such a challenge for me.
So lucky to find your video. I couldn’t do squat properly. Your exercise really works. I can’t believe that I can do it now. Many thanks.
How long did it take you to fixit
Great video on both the explanation and what we can do to address these issues!
Thanks Harry!
I have never been able to keep both ankles on the ground when I squat deeper than 90 degrees. Thanks for this lesson. I’m sure it’ll help alot
Can you make a video on hip labrum tear
You are legit, thank you for the video
Hey man, great content.
Can you do a video on hip impingement?
Seems like there is a large desire for this, so yeah I will within the next few weeks
Definitely need to take an anatomy class before watching this. Going to take a nap.
This hit the spot!, amazing!
Great explanation
Well, this changes just about everything! 🤯

Side lunge: 2 sets of 15 reps per side
Goblet squat: 1 set of 12
Bravo Conor, amazing job bro
Glad you enjoyed it
In terrible at the squat. I can lift more weight in the lunge or single leg press. Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching!
Thankyou Conor
❤❤Could you address the overextension when squat? Thx
Hi please after explanation can you please do a short example,couse same we understand more on example
Really appreciate these videos. Keep it up!
Great as always 🙌
Thanks for sharing this tips it helps

A reminder that part of squat technique is based on the individual. For example, those with a longer femur than torso will lean differently.
Plz make a video on breathing exercises for left aic right bc pattern

@@conorharris Thank you very much for taking time to answer 🙂
I'll keep going with basic arch support then.
Have a great day!
Hey man just a question all the exercise in video should be done on both sides or one side
Both, he explained it before in his program
If theres restriction/strain on my supporting knee while going down with the posterior pelvic tilt, whats happening and how can I address it?
What improves your squat, gait, running, athletics? A proper ankle rocker.
I recently discovered you. You're so good at explaining, thank you!! ♥️
Hi Connor,
Unrelated to this vid, but question in general.
I have a horizontal line on my belly, wanted to ask if you could help me understand how to address it. I can email you a picture of what it looks like? And get a private consultation if possible?
Hi Connor. I cant Even put my left arm above my head like you did there… any thoughts on why?
What about leg range of motion stretches? Had knee surgery and one thing I need to work on
How do I go about improving lateral force. I play basketball and I feel I don't get enough lateral push when I slide.
I am going to release a pretty relevant video to that later this week, but work on your abduction as well
A video on reverse burpee

When thighs are parallel to the floor, the hip (IFJ) is much greater than 90 degrees, though...
If you are close build can you expand the hips?

in spanish? :,c
Would it benefit us if we were barefoot with your work?❤️
Had a job to stay awake ! Way too technical and boring !
