Is Squat Therapy Actually Solving Your Squat Problem?

Constraining the environment makes sense, but when you lack the requisite ankle ROM to drive the knees forward and maintain an upright torso, you will end up solving the problem by creating another hip joint (see video above for explanation). #Stripperbutt is not an effective strategy over the long haul.
Practice makes permanent. #IUTU #liveready #thereadystate #squattherapy

😂 “What’s up with that guy?!” Had me laughing with that one.

[@alexisalmonte8960]

How he taps his head on the wall was hilarious and the sound too lol

[@ChampionsClub2010]

I gotta say I really like the delivery you have on this one Kelly. It's a choice. We can honestly have our athletes do whatever we want, and whatever we have them do is going to slowly turn into their default.

Thank you for helping us think about our knees out, instead of spine shear. No one want to look like that guy 😉. Great video.

[@JesusRevezzo]

Damn! I was totally doing this recently. Thanks for stopping me.

Love watching Kelly squat. Make a clip of just Kelly air squatting 20 reps side on so we can appreciate the form? 🤣

[@gracious2gf]

Very informative video. Did Doc just say "stripper butt" towards the end of the video? That's hilarious!

[@robindavis7023]

Thanks.

[@ThatPNWlyfe]

so I have limited range in my ankles. Hips stiff AF. Can't do a squat without falling backwards. Where to start?

[@mattpeterson7074]

Anywhere I think is the honest answer. Just pick one and work on it. Personally, I started with the couch stretch every day for like 2 months and my hips improved vastly.

What is that Matt?

[@EmmanuelaPintus]

ha, "stripper butt" 😂
Great info, thanks coach!

[@HoloJinX]

"A ton of stripper butt" was the mantra of my twenties.

[@ericsalinas1839]

What's up with that guy? That was me, LoL

Traditional squat therapy isn’t good cool... but what’s the new squat therapy...

[@stylezofom]

Someone please show this to Mark Rippetoe and his cult followers.
