@@eawavy2316 Wouldn't consider them big, but not that small either, only been lifting for 2 years. Only been doing hypertrophy training for a couple months now, used to focus on powerlifting before that.
This is interesting, I’ve just started fixing my squat technique to be able to lift more weight (powerlifting style) and I’m loving that because the technique feels very efficient. But I am getting less DOMs the next day, would you say that a powerlifting stance doesn’t help you build muscle? Surely that which helps you lift the most weight will help you build the most muscle if you start training that specific technique for hypertrophy? I.e., slow eccentric, high volume? I.e., with the powerlifting technique you can move more weight so if you can move more weight for higher volume wouldn’t that be best? Literally just asking as I’ve notice more weight, more efficiency, but less doms which I found interesting
To find the perfect foot position for your particular build, I remember reading this tip, which I have applied since and it works great: just jump in place 4 -5 times: your feet will automatically align to the most naturally comfortable position for your body.
Your quads are working more than you think, but your quads may actually fatigue in the set before you think as well. Your hips, glutes, etc. have a lot to do with the movement as well. Don't worry too much about mind muscle connection until later on.
After a bunch of measurements, I'm apparently built for squats with short femurs and long torso. That's all fine and good until you try shopping for clothes. 😢 If I apply the more quad dominant techniques you've demonstrated, I'll become a true bodybuilder and it'll be 100% more impossible to find something that fits. Thanks Dr Mike.
Dr Mike, I bought one of your templates and the results have been out of this world and wanted to thank you for it. Now for the question. I'm lifter with a REALLY long femur and I find it impossible to stay upright without falling on my butt, even with squat shoes. Is it a technique problem or am I really biomechanically disadvantaged? Thank you for what you re doing.
I got his template too. Man, I put on a lot of size, it’s actually insane. However, I couldn’t sustain the volume on later weeks of the meso. Thus, I’ll only use it if I have a lot of time, or I want to put on mass before the summer. 2 Mesos of this program just slabs on the size.
It could be more technique stuff than you've considered, but yes, biomechanics is definitely a thing, and some folks will benefit by doing leg presses, leg extensions, and hack squats before squats so that they can get more out of squats themselves. - Dr. Mike
I would trade out barbell squat for hacks in that case. The added stability will help you focus on the muscle you’re trying to train, quads. I bet they’ll blow up and you won’t miss barbell squat.
From personal experience it could be muscle imbalance/weakness somewhere along the chain of muscles required for squatting. Balance and more mind muscle connection in the legs helped tremendously.
That's easy.. Just load up the bar with 200% of your 1RM, unrack and get in position, dive bomb the rep to tear all ligaments in your knees. Ta-da! You've just achieved no quad growth for an extended period of time. Bonus tip; If you want no more growth period (except maybe arms?) Round your back and don't brace during the rep in order to move all the disc's from between your vertebrae to not in between your vertebrae.
I recommend wide stance "squat-mornings" in the 3-6 rep range, preferably with a 5-10 second pause for 2-3 breaths at the top from the very beginning of the set, never taking your eyes away from your feet. It worked great for me - I had very minimal newbie gains, but my systemic fatigue was through the roof! Try it, it works! As an added bonus, it's also a great way to develop your joint pains and bring back old injuries. 💩🙌 Edit: It's ok to take your eyes away from the floor to look around between reps and try to asses who's looking at you for that next rep, it really aids with motivation.
@@shmuckling Great tip! Actually on further consideration I actually recommend training arms considering the probability of a new mode of transportation where strong arms will definitely benefit you.
For quads I'll usually put 5lb plates under my heels, shoulder width feet. Allows me to go past 90 and keep my chest up more. That little heel lift helps me keep pressure on my heels too.
@@Hopie-n-Ginger no other squat kills the quads like this. Mostly it's an alternative for those who don't have toddler-esque mobility and cant do it flat foot.
Awesome video but your clothes are way too baggy and we can’t see your form completely. Next time wear something for fitting. You still explained everything well enough to bypass this issue
I find doing a slight hip flexion prior to the movement helps much to prevent excessive anterior pelvic tilt and as consequence my quads are more engaged.
Dr. Mike, do you have any tips to keep the chest high at the bottom of the squat when using a regular barbell? I find it way easier to do that with a safety bar, but not with a regular one
Don't know if anyone still watching this old a video. But, when I drop my squat down low. I often get issue of my back getting pressured and feeling a sharp pain. Is it simply I'm not keeping myself up right enough. Or, am I just simply going way too low?
I have a very large and defined VMO, but the rest of my quad have very little development - despite having quite large thighs. My body fat is low enough to have a clear 6 pack, but not super low. What's going on here?
Hi, I'm not Dr. Mike. Using the wedge IME lets my knees travel further forward getting more into the quads, while not letting my janky ankles limit my depth, but you still drive through the whole foot because the heels should be anchored onto the wedge.
So toes out is fine for that?? I have always done toes forward and a slight heel raise (due to some mobility issues in my ankles meaning I should probably stretch) But... I have never tried quad dominant squats, toes out... I shall give it a go!!!!!!
For squatting, can I use a heavy back pack filled with rocks? It should be okay, it’s just the load is hanging off my back instead of directly on my shoulders. is it still okay to do it that way?
No mention of elevating the heels thru slant board/standing on a plate and squatting shoes. Great for higher rep work, one can stay extremely upright and get very deep, I am sorely dissapointed by this, Dr.Mike.
I love these, but also how Dr. Mike’s demeanor is completely professional. We all enjoy the jokes and analogies in the other videos, but this straight up info with demonstrations/ no bullshit approach is also greatly appreciated.
This comment is long overdue. Doing legs today. This channel has changed my workouts. I simplified the hell out of my daily workouts and am feeling the muscles more than ever. Awesome work by the RP team. Dr. Mike rants and workout critiques are my go to entertainment. Lastly no homo but I can see and hear dr Mike doing his death laugh during the last few tough reps
Hey Mike, Thanks for this video. It gave me some nice points to think about on my next leg day. I am super fortunate to have a Transformer bar in my garage gym. Maybe sometime in the future you could do a little tutorial on how you use the different settings on this bar. I enjoy it in the goblet squat position to keep me in more of an upright/quad focused position. Thanks again !
I just switched up my squats like this after realising I was using too much glutes, doing far less weight but quads are getting fried like never before
If your back isn't what limits how much you can front squat sure. Personally my quads far outperform my upper back and fail before my quads, I can still Good morning the hell out of a front squat too. It doesn't magically keep you into the quads IME. High bar has been much better for me dialing in technique and keeping chest up.
Are visible veins in the legs due to how lean one is and genetics? Even at sub 10% I cannot seem to get the veins popping in the legs, but totally different story for the upper body. Great video.
Yes to both. Given all individual differences, physical traits will be expressed differently. Some wont have veiny legs, others will look like Nick Walker 🤷♂️ lottery and what not. Sometimes it can be forced, but you gotta be reeealll dry for that.
I don’t think many natties have veiny legs. Gear increases vascularity. Like guys on gear will have veins all over their thighs whereas that is rare to see naturally.
Leanness, genetics, and training history. Keep training and you'll get more veins while... getting less vain? I'm not sure about the last part! - Dr. Mike
If you do squat powerlifitng style, will you still experience decent quad growth and stimulation? Or is it minimal and mostly in the glutes/lower back? Love the videos Dr. Mike!
It's not bad but you will get better quad growth from what I gather from a bodybuilder style squat. My hips don't allow me to do that though. Squating to depth for me is already next to impossible, lol.
@@Madchris8828 try platz squats with heels elevated and fairly close stance. I’m 6’3 so definitely don’t have ideal leverages, combined with subpar ankle mobility from lots of football (soccer) and could never even really squat to parallel. But they’ve been game changing both for quad development and general comfortability with the squad
As a road cyclist transitioning to sprint. This is my bread and butter and i look forward to it every single time. It was brutal in the beginning doing even 25 bidy weight squats. Now doing 10 really heavy to failure is walk in the park. Erector spinae gives up. Quads have still juice in them. In Feb onwards i would be focused to strength only
Thank you so much. I've been getting back into lifting after breaking my back a few years ago. My squat muscle memory is gone. My glutes are getting massive but my quads are soft and weak. Your explanation was perfect. This is just what I needed!
I'm really trying to get good at squats but my lower back hurts, i've done exams and everything, 0 problems everything is fine with the lower back so i dont understand why it hurts, oh yes and i've already tried every type of squat variation you can imagine, back, front, hack, wide, narrow, etc..

Great break down of the squat. You just gave me a totally new way to perform a supposedly basic squat. These little technique and style recommendations are HUGE. Thanks!!!
question if anyone can answer. when i stop going the gym ( in my garage ) for a week after 6 week program i always go back stranger than i was during the program. if this due due to rest or anything more science!
Any tips for perfecting the "knees back" powerlifting squat? I low bar squat but my knees still drift forward causing some stability and glute rounding issues.
I’m finding that when I squat all the way down with a shoulder width stance, my adductors are always sore the next day but not my quads, what could be causing that?
Yeah sitting back is definitely what powerlifters do, but you really can't push your knees forward while you're going down, at least as a cue because it might throw the bar path off, what you want to do is pull your knees apart and imagine dropping your torso between your knees and that will push your knees forward without you actively getting the bar out of its proper path. Sit between your knees
I'm on a cut and sticking to hack squat and leg extensions during the cut per Dr. Mike's recos on Stimulus-to-Fatigue ratios. Can't wait to get fat and try these tho
Just did my annual leg day but will note this for next year
🤣🤣
Oh now THAT was funny!
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Every day is skip legs day!
No squatting in the curl rack plz.
This series is such a gem, this is gonna help turn my powerlifting squat into a hypertrophy squat, thanks Dr Mike

Yes, or do an unloaded ATG BW squat.
the problem is getting my feet into position after the walkout
Or just slap on a catchers mitt and catch a few pitches.

or ‘SLOW.. SLOWER’ 😂
1 minute in and my knee pain is better thanks Dr Mike
Thanks magic mike. My last leg day was really lame because I couldn't feel my quads while squatting this will help a bunch.
Your quads are working more than you think, but your quads may actually fatigue in the set before you think as well. Your hips, glutes, etc. have a lot to do with the movement as well. Don't worry too much about mind muscle connection until later on.
Love this series!!! Up until this video I was squatting mostly with my arms!!!! Thanks dr mike!
You missed the opportunity at the end to edit you flying from a jet pack, good video as always.

Whoa the knees forward thing really makes me feel the quads better! Thanks for the tips!
Not this easy as Mike obviously has superior slavic squatting genes
dangit! now i have to figure out how to squat for the LEAST growth!

Great video, right in time for my squats today, I tried this version vs the powerlifting style, much better fit for me, thank you!

@@mr8raves292 ha ha ha nah, I'm thinking more like European-style Speedo
I squat only for strength, leg press has been vastly superior for quad hypertrophy in my experience.

THANK YOU! Just finished 6 sets focusing on this technique and controlling and pausing the reps, THE BEST quad activation 🔥
