Yesss. I need this right now, what a coincidence. Squats have been lacking lately in comparison to bench and deads.

0:52 Tempo Squats - good for people who rely too much on the bounce out the hole 1:18 Pause Squats - 2-5 secs are sufficient, any longer you will need a lighter weight which will not have an effective overload. Pause must be active. 2:02 Dead/Pin Squats 2:52 Strengthening Glutes with Barbell Hip Thrust - glutes play a big role in getting out the hole effectively.

I'm really liking these videos, I've been paranoid that I'm not having enough work to support my main lifts. But, after having seen your videos I can pretty much say that I'm hitting each weak point with one or two exercises already, without me really thinking about it. You've put my mind to ease a little bit and now I can just keep lifting and when I manage to identify some issues I'll know where to put my focus on.

Concerning the pause squats, would it be best to start with a 2'' count and work our way up to a 5'' count or the other way around? Also, generally what sets/ reps / % of 1RM are we looking at? Great video, very informative, thank you!
@JuggernautTrainingSystems5 жыл бұрын
Adding time to the pause would be a way to overload but I'd just stick with a set pause time and work on overloading volume or intensity based on phase. It will follow similar loading strategies to the primary variations depending on which phase you're in, generally just a bit lower volume or lighter since it is a secondary movement.

@StrongButAwkward5 жыл бұрын
What would be the decision process you would go through to decide whether you would want to do Dead/Anderson Squats vs Pin Squats at parallel? Does it even matter or is it just preference? I feel like the position is highly specific and it would be much harder to get into your natural bottom position just squeezing yourself under the bar near parallel vs actually lower yourself into the position naturally, pausing for 0.5-1seconds and then exploding. Am I missing something here?
@JuggernautTrainingSystems5 жыл бұрын
You're on the right track. If the athlete can't get under the bar for a Dead Squat in a position that replicate that part of the lift, then pin squats (from the top down) may be a better option. If you choose to use the Pin Squats though and are doing them in an effort to diminish the stretch reflex, you're going to want more of a 3-5 second pause on the pins though, not .5-1 second.

Why do female powerlifters generally have a narrow stance in squat compared to male powerlifters? Is it just a comfort thing, or is there a physiological reason for it?
@trolologuy022 жыл бұрын
It’s generally physiological. Men tend to have more retroversion in their hips (more external than internal rotation, causing the feet to point outwards) and often have deeper hip sockets, which leaves less room for the femurs to come up towards the chest, leading to more abduction (opening) of the legs. Squat Academy has a really good video on what your stance should be according to how your own skeleton is built.
