We all gotta start somewhere. If that's more difficult for you there's nothing wrong with that. Do a couple sets of that just body weight If you want. You'll have much improved hip mobility when you're ready to add heavier weights to your deep squats.
I was a dancer, and I’d always do this same warmup before every rehearsal/class/show. It feels incredible just having the hips stretch out. Another stretch we’d do is having partners go into a straddle split, and they pull each others arms until the one stretching was touching the floor with his/her belly.
I did this with a band around my ankles as a warmup. Not only did I squat deeper; but I squatted my comfortably than ever. My true barbell squat Pr was lowered when I started squatting properly. But I actually feel my legs working properly. Now when I’m bored I do this warmup for fun at home
Thank you so much!!! I just started squatting again after a long break, and i was getting this tightening pain in my hamstrings that made me afraid to do more weight. Going to try and do this every morning along with my other stretches.
Would have respect and watch this channel, if they had the decency to credit the original video creator. I have seen several of the clips from here where I was looking for it to find the full video, just like this one. But it is not here. Not nice
Good stuff! I've been doing that deep squat and knee spreading since about 2015 almost every morning. It did wonders for getting rid of occasional knee pain I was starting to get in my 30s. I also lean side to side to stretch the calves while I'm down there. From there, I go up to a big full body reach for the sky stretch. I've been doing it prior to squats for a while now as well. I'll try adding that half-squat part too.
What I didn't believe was true is holding a weight in front of you actually makes squatting easier. I was messing around with my boyfriend's 25 pound weights and squatted with it infront of me and I was amazed at thr amount of balance I got just doing my regular body weight form but with a weight. Definitely going to keep going that direction.
warm ups like this have actually reduced some of those knee sounds i have in the gym. i noticed if i don’t do any decent warm ups on leg day, my knees will sound like firecrackers 🥲
"Mobility" is just a combination of flexibility and strength. It is not a separate aspect of general fitness. Furthermore, for people who do not have an existing injury, there is no need to perform any sort of warm-up when *properly* strength training. Most people have been led to believe that warm-ups are important because they have never been taught proper strength training principles and protocols. Once someone understands proper strength training, the appropriate resistance will be well below the range that would warrant any preparatory activity. (Note this does not apply to the practice of strength training activities for *competitive* purposes, such as Powerlifting. Such activity is sports-specific practice, not strength training.)
Can you make a short video on athletic calfs. Some people say that stretching them will reduce the strength explosive movements. If yes, are these long- or shortterm effects.
I can deep squat (naturally flexible /double jointed ) . but now in my late 20’s ( never thought I’d be saying that ) , I have this uncomfortable feeling in my left front hip when trying to deep squat .. I also feel the front hip uncomfortable tightness when trying to squeeze and engage my left glute and thigh . I’ve attempted that Pistole squat move countless times and I can’t lift myself up past my knee without immediately standing on my top toes and falling over( I can’t keep my feet flat on the floor and lift using my heel ) 😅 I feel old and broken down , can’t bend and move the way I use to .
My squats have never been deeper than what they are now thanks to you👏🏾
I like when knees can reach the shoulders as well
Get squat shoes youre welcome
Thats good and all but can you cook?

Exactly

You’re not slick 😂
Yeah asking for a friend 🤣
That’s my goal! I want my shoulders touching my knees.
Thank you for all the great info. I love these
Her warmup is my whole workout😊

The lunge to hamstring stretch is something I need to add to my own warm-ups
Holy moly that looks cool
You should include the link to the original video as credits as well as for us to check it out. Thank you
Agreed.
I think its cuz he usually stitches videos on tik tok, so the link to the creator is there. But he just reposts the videos here without the stitch
@@01TacocaT10 makes sense.
you cant put links on yotube shorts anymore
@robincordero5490 oh seriously? Wow...
I agree. Underrated move what she did there.
Please add a link to the original video and credit the original creator! I want to see all the warm ups she's doing!
Me too!!
please give details on original video
You are the truth. Squat U, Kneesovertoes, Movementgems lets GO!
I need her full warm up? Link or @? Please start tagging them
@gainzbybrains
Sorry @gainsbybrains I follow her on CZcams
Right. Shoutout to you giving someone else credit for a good video but yes, the tag also is important. ✅🤝🏾
@@xarellemusic4667I can't find the clip in her channel. I think it is someone else

Man I remember seeing your original video on this when I was still in college and still implement it occasionally when I squat.
Dude your videos seriously changed my life. Thank you brother ❤
K but who's the op, because she's the one actually teaching this.
He's also teaching this, he even gave more information.

@@ztmorris9738no they are right she is actually providing good content, she deserves to have some credit.
Love this channel. Great help! 👍❤
I dig it. How to balance not static stretching and focus on mobility.
Thank you so much!!!

Depth in squats have been my priority long before i started seeing you, but now, I'm gonna go for even MORE depth!😂
I'm super jealous of her depth....
Hey @SquatUniversity you are very helpful and knowledgeable! Thank you so much for helping to enrich so many peoples lives 🎉👏🙌👍👌🤟
one of the best fitness channels. Very informative
I'm trying this today!
I love this channel 💀
Yea this mobility drill has helped my squat depth tremendously. Always a go to on leg day.
Who is she? Would love to see her page
That warmup is my whole training 😅
Smart woman. New stretches added
I do this to relive lower back pain after working a double.
TY!!
Asians who do the Asian squat: Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!
I'm trying this!🔥
All stretching should be proceeded by some form of steady state cardio to warm up muscles/joints prior
That girl has exceptional mechanics
Thanks for uploding that's very good 😊

I do the same mobility drills before lower body as well.
Can you make a video about what to do to fix knee that cracking when you get to a full range of motion in a squat?
He has, there is no fixing it. We will rice crispy knees for life srry
To be fair, I've seen a video that claims to fix it so don't give up. I think this guy has a ton of knowledge but he doesn't know everything.

thank you sharing this I'll try this later.
Your vids are interesting and can Help Thanks to this 👍🙏
Do these in the morning before breakfast. Then eat, wait 2 hours then gym. Gold.
Why would you do this warmup & then wait 2 hours🧐
@@smack9516 🧐
I’m literally doing this movement all day😎my coworkers look at me crazy😂
I'll do a similar thing but I'll hold the bar in front for stability but only for stability, it is pretty awesome

Watching this on leg day 😂
Amazing routine.👍

My ankle mobility said no 😭
It is so easy for me because of my hypermobility. But getting stronger is so hard 😢
Good vid. Thanks
This is also best for pain the next day after legs workout
I’m on this for sure
Ive been doing the plate drill for about a month now. Definately helping my squats and oly lifts.
Very educational
ayyy that first movement is called the frog squat, i used to do these in middle school as a little kid lmao
Thank you 💪💪🏋️🏋️
That's not a warm up. That's the whole workout.
So basically weight is a counterweight, which allows you to squat deeper without falling onto your backside.
I do the deep squat same as her. I should do the other things too though. Great video as always
When i tried this, i tore my meniscus.
Me an indian laughing at the train tracks
I was about to yet again complain about not being able to add shorties to playlists.
But now you can!
When did we get this? 👁️👁️
1. Hit the gym
2. Do those
3. Back to home
Can you make a short video on athletic calfs. Some people say that stretching them will reduce the strength explosive movements. If yes, are these long- or shortterm effects.
what about walking dumbbell lunges? Could you kindly recommend warm up drills for those?
I will now pursue my dream of being a wall at the gym, thank you!
Its the 'Mat' for me wish me luck
Reminds me of that family guy episode where quagmire turns into a condom, lol.
Woah. So streatches can be dynamic even within a deep squat? Nice
What are the best kinds of shoes to wear when working out?
Do you sell workout routines ? I can use the videos for form and the routine to get in shape. Thanks

I'm one of those whose heels cant stay flat during squats, but with a weight held in front, golden
Is it ok do this mobility drill even with a knee pain?
Love your videos man- do you have any advice on snapping tricep? It started after a scapula and coracoid injury when doing pullups
That’s straight out of Obi Vincent’s channel. I use the exact same warmup.
Azz2grazz 😂😂😂😂
My brain needs a wash 😩 😅
I've been doing this just cuz it felt good. Lol
Yo can you do this with hip replacement
Asian have the deepest squad
Can this help fix lower back pain?
Random but if anyone's looking for more legs warm ups, thai boxing has some good ones 🤙🏽🍻
On the weighted squats do you need to also squeeze the hips inward on the way up? Or is it just flexing at the knee?
🤚… but what if the “pry open” movement hurts in the upper thigh, groin area?
Best squat warmup is squats
Please tag the original video creator in case we want to go follow for more. Cheers 👍🏾
10kg is light plate ok i'm motivated rn🔥
When you sit on heels completely down, should your pelvis tuck in?
