    1. Strengthen posterior chain. Choose exercises that minimize compressive forces on spine.
    2. Learn how to use your glutes.
    3. Strengthen upper back and especially core and obliques to maintain a more upright position at the bottom of the squat

    As a long femur lifter i have figured out that squatting is very fatigueing for me. What helped me alot is doing alot of higher volume unilateral squat work like split squat and lunges. My quads are weak, but my posterior chain is very strong.

    Just found your channel. Amazing advice and really makes a lot of sense. Really appreciate your message about how learning how to squat properly will take months or years and the emphasis on form and not just numbers. Get the form right, the numbers will come and you will not get injured, that is what it is all about.

    Matt, I just watched a video you did on the proper way to do box squats and I got to say it was better than all the articles and videos I have watched. You explained how how to push your knees out, what lead with first , what is the real difference between a box squat and regular squat, and what could cause a person to be good at box squats and suck at regular squats. So I tried the form you suggested and squats felt a lot easier on my lower back and knees. Thanks for the advice.

    Great video. I like using 1 to 2 inches heel elevation in my squats too so I can get a better squeeze at the lower range of the movement without relying on knee muscles, so I can go lower with heavier weight. Very good insight in the fact that obliques are used to transfer power from the legs to the bar and vise versa. Never thought about it before

    I always go toes pointed forward, I find it hard to lower parallel when toes are pointed out, and my feet are e actually closer than shoulder width apart. I find the smaller muscles in my knees are less used this way and more glutes, hamstrings and quads, which... results in using power muscles for a power workout

My dumbass forgot to program direct lower back work in the weeks leading up this shift in programming. Hoping I can scramble and catch up, I'm on 5x5 for 4 weeks, so I think I'll be alright.

    I have been using a hip band while squatting lately at it’s helped a lot in turning on the glutes especially in the hole.
    This video is so true though - a kid in my gym just won 1st at an ipf event but when he squats his knees travel in, his ass shoots back, then it’s good morning time lol.
