    Off topic but I think appropriate: Beginners/young people just starting out: find Matt’s video on the Wenning Warmups. Critical for optimal growth and performance.

    Hey Matt I think you ought to remake the “so you think you can squat” videos from elite fts those videos were what taught me how to squat and now I have a 865 squat in comp in gear in less than two years of competing. Very helpful for me

      @@user-zb3lr3ke4f my first equipped meet was in single ply and squatted a easy 740 then did my first multiply meet 6 months later and hit 865 I missed my opener if I hadn’t I think I would of gotten 900 at that meet. My best raw squat is 685 I did in the gym about a year into competing. But I’ve been lifting since I was like 11 years old.

    I can confirm that the squat style change didn't happen over night for me. It took me 2 and a half years to become posterior dominant but it's a well worth long-term investment!

      Same bro, I finally hit 405 for 5 and my hamstrings were lit up. It was surprising because for years my quads would get sore but I barely get a quad pump nowadays unless I squat on a slant board, forcing my knees forward.

    Mr. Wenning, what is your opinion on oly shoes for a low bar powerlifter who has hamstring tightness that makes it difficult to hit depth without losing tightness as a whole?

    My old squat cues were based on starting strength where Rip has people looking down and rounding their back. I kept wondering why I was constantly doing a squat morning pattern. These cues have helped me so much in fact the first time I used these cues I managed to pause squat what my previous squat PR was and I'm feeling it much less in my lower back and much less on my core and way more in my legs.

No one who has been taught to low bar correctly by him or any Starting Strength coach rounds their back..... You doing a good morning squat is you executing the movement incorrectly. Look up a powerlifter called Joseph Pena, he started out with Starting Strength....seemed to do ok with a 430kg best squat
