140kg squat perfect form by 75kg 43 year old, watch and learn

[domdude5000]

drive from the hips, dont lift your chest too early, an inch deeper maybe and then it would be perfect

[Chazton1]

not bad. Only thing is watch your right heel make sure it doesnt come up of the ground and keep your back a little straighter with your chest up more. The depth was fine. -Chaston- Gold's Gym PT

[vladimirhoferica]

NO WAY THIS IS 140 KG

[waterDrinker13]

very very good, fuck the haters.

[mankillsquare]

Saying 'watch and learn' is a bit cocky for a not-to-parallel squat but still strong, keep it up!

[paulisawesome14]

EVERYONE IS BEING OVER THE TOP, HIS FORM WAS FINE NOT PERFECT BUT ITS STILL GOING TO WORK THOSE QUADS. SOMETIMES PEOPLE ARE SO FUCKING PICKY I BET HALF THE PEOPLE WRITING STUFF DONT EVEN WORKOUT HAHA

[hunkyjelly]

hi, i recommend you watch a guy called "Mark Rippetoe" on youtube, he gives the best demonstrations and proper form. hope you check it out

[puskin66]

thanks for all youre replies good and bad, i will take all the advice and change how i squat..! there was me thinking i was doing it right!!

[10nsw]

The depth you squat isn't determined by any angle. Some people who are tall or unflexible simply cant go really low safely. For the safety of you're spine you go down untill you notice your lower back "break" meaning loose the arch and round. You can do this simply by asking someone to watch when you're back rounds. If you really want to learn how to squat safely go to a professional exercise physiologist or physio, you tube is full of wrong information and unqualified people giving advice.

[hunkyjelly]

@10nsw except for Mark rippetoe

[10nsw]

@hunkyjelly Nice, im guessing he is an exercise physiologist?

[hunkyjelly]

@10nsw no, hes a strength and conditioning coach, also an ex power lifter and hes coached america's olympic power lifters before, he also gives video demonstrations on proper exuction of benchpresses and deadlifts

[10nsw]

@hunkyjelly Yet still people will comment and say what he does is wrong haha. Hence the hate for youtube training videos.

[hunkyjelly]

@10nsw mm i can see where they're coming from, always get a second opinion and from a true qualified professional i guess

[electronikita]

Fuck you for arrogance, thinking that this is perfect squat form.

[marek112675]

lol, ...still need to go down lower buddy when squatting. ....I use 225 lbs to warm up for 12-16 reps. But hey, it's great that you work out, other people sit on the couch and watch tv lifting chips and beer to their mouths, lol.

[puskin66]

@marek112675 thanks mate appreciate youre comment

[onetao8]

Good squat! What plates have u got on the bar are the big plates 40kg each? When i squat 140kg i have 6 20kg plates + 20 kg bar =140kg. Cheers

[ArtClash]

Holy crap, your knees were shaking during the first position. Bend them next time. Very dangerous. >_>

[eowdaoc]

Definitely not perfect form. Idiot.

[puskin66]

no need to be rude though is there.

[eowdaoc]

@puskin66 Why post "perfect squat form" video if you're not even going parallel? There has to be a million of these videos, and I must question the uploader's common sense.

[puskin66]

it seems everyone has a differing opinion of ehat the perfect squat is, though i do agree with you, mine is not perfect, and yeah i should have gone a little lower to parallel. though going much below parallel as you know is damaging for the knees and recrutes the glutes heavily, in my years of traing i have seen guys with bad knees and larlge asses who go much below Parallel on a rgular basis.. Thanks for your comments. Andy

[eowdaoc]

@puskin66 You are incorrect.

[kylewaller]

@puskin66 Squatting below parallel is most definitely not bad for your knees. Squatting to parallel is actually worse for your knees, because at the point of your knee and hip being parallel, your knees are under the most sheer stress. Dropping in to a full depth squat is much better for your whole body. Next time you watch olympic weight lifting, watch how they always do full depth squats. Their knees are fine and they don't have huge arses. It's FACT that they're not bad for your knees.

@puskin66

MAKE ANOTHER SQUAT VIDEO:

this time take a more narrow stance, squat to the floor,e it and keep your back straight+your head up:

thus you will eliminate the Big ass, the bad knees, and generate the power through correct stance:

thanks for the video, i appreciate it

[MrMbogza]

@puskin66 going below parallel is NOT bad for the knees, unless you do the movement improperly or have a patellar dysfunction. Also, nothing wrong with recruiting glutes, they are one of the biggest muscles in the body and it helps to keep them strong. big glutes =/= fat ass. most peoples glutes are actually very weak. anyway, pretty good display of strength

[sara131281]

@eowdaoc indeeed not a good form .; he leans to much forward .; back isnt straight enough .; he needs to learn techinque on boxsquats first !!!

[puskin66]

ok dude, point taken, thanks

[puskin66]

Bless you my friend,im 44 now! ouch..

[6reevesy9]

your never 43 are you?

[jonnywildboar]

a squat rack...in a kitchen...with a fireplace ??? i am in heaven !!

[blademonkey]

@jonnywildboar lol

[doddoso]

the bar shouldn't be on the neck, but on the shoulders. his head does that back bending... i don't think it's good.

[captainjosue]

@doddoso The bar is not on his shoulders but on his trapezius and rhomboid muscles. It's off the neck. Trust me, having it on your neck hurts!!! He's using a high bar position.

[funk192]

almost a squat, can be called high-bar half squat with perfect form

[Wiegieboard]

@funk192 agreed.

[cwounG]

You're strong!

But a little lower (below parrallel) would be good!

[aznflea]

are these good or not?

[puskin66]

well thos is the most important part of any routine. The best excercise for many reasons. This and the romanian deadlift. Though must be performed with strict form or injury is likely.

[alexlordcool]

my bottoms -.-
