    The issue here is the over-emphasis on the hip drive to the point that she is raising her hips up a split second before the rest of the movement. You can see that her movement is in two parts. As she raises her hips, her torso remains tilted forward, and as a result, the second after she raises her hips, she needs to rely on lower back extension to straighten up her torso into an upright position (like a Good Morning).
    What this will lead to is excessive strain on the lower back. Sure your lower back gets stronger, but soon enough, you're going to slow down in progression as you're limited by your lower back. Your lower back is going to be aching.
    Hip drive is essential in squatting, but it should be done at the same time as back extension.
    So yes, push your hips up, but do it at the same time as keeping your back upright and straightening out.
    You shouldnt be able to see the two parts of the squat like in this video. It should all be one fluid movement.
    Your quads become more involved, you still actively exert that hip drive, you can lift heavier, and you get less back strain.

      I think what you describe will happen anyways on heavy squat. But total beginners usually don't have any clue what hip drive means. So its useful to teach them with emphasis on hip drive, so they can apply it correctly when weight gets heavier.

      It's not cheap, but the way I look at it is like this: once you experience SS coaching, you realize that no other franchise actually provides coaching. These personal trainers with their kinesiology degrees aren't worth a damn. And crossfit coaches? What a joke. Yeah, let's AMRAP snatches for a PR. Labrum destroyed, how funny! You get what you pay for. I am a fan, and I recommend the program. Had I gotten coaching early on, it would have saved me some minor injuries because my squat form was lacking. And progress would have been faster. Took me a year to get what would have been 4 months of progress.

    I've a question about the execution of the hip drive. On some squats it looks like the hips move faster than bar. In other words, it looks like her hips get closer to this ceiling, but the bar doesn't, which makes me think the hip drive -at that moment- didn't generate bar movement - lost power. Is that how to hip drive should look -with hips moving towards the ceiling first, and then the bar moving after - or should it all move all together?

    • @Francesco-cj3oi
      @Francesco-cj3oi 10 месяцев назад +2

      That's what it looks like when the load is light. For demonstration and instruction purposes it's better to use light weights. The movement will look a little different it heavy loads but what you're doing here is trying to learn the concept of hip drive, so exagerating it is fine

      Put a box behind you and try to sit on it while maintaining a horizontal back angle and hip drive from there. Make sure it's low enough that you squat to depth. Or put a plate in your hands to counterbalance your bodyweight, until you figure out how to stay in balance at the bottom

  • @northkyt
    @northkyt 4 месяца назад

    Everything makes sense to me except for the back bending over to such a low angle. This seems like it would cause a lot of strain on the back, especially during the drive-up back to the starting position. Since the hips drive up first and then the back drives up, there's gonna be a lot of weight that the back has to support. None of the other squat techniques I've seen do it this way, and it doesn't make sense to me.

There are a lot of things that make sense in the squat chapter, including the center of mass, hip impingement mitigation, engaging the posterior chain and feet pointed out discussions. Those things match my previous experience as a long-time strength and endurance athlete. But the author doesn't give any evidence that bending the back over at a much steeper angle than most coaches teach is safer. He just asserts it's true and says it doesn't cause shear forces. And I don't have any experience or evidence or advice from many coaches I've worked with to support that. I would love to see a biomechanics clinical study on this. Any biomechanics scientists listening?

      @@northkyt he does explain all of that.. Also, getting caught up on one individuals back angle is silly. The person in question has long femurs and a short back segment. This will always lead to a more bent over position. Different individuals anthropometry will dictate your position. A person with a long back segment and short femurs will be much more upright even with a properly performed low bar squat. It’s just anthropometry. This is all discussed endlessly on the Starting Strength forums. Leaning over allows you to access your hips, which are much stronger than your knees ever could be. Just watch any 1000+ squat. Everyone’s leaning over. You have to.

      Make a video of you from back practising bringing your shoulder blades together,

      Then what you do is keep your chest high and shoulders back and it will definitely keep your bar in right place

Also sometimes it almost feels like we are doing a good morning at the bottom instead of actual squat when standing up and again, probably due to the lack of understanding of chest up. Again, with just the bar, it wont seem like a problem, but i would love to see a PR attempt on this technique and it would be obvious.
