    The only guy in the gym that has a valid excuse to skip leg-day, and now he fixed it

    That's quite an unusual case! Was he able to perform the touch down without pain in the first place and then progress accordingly?

    • @SquatUniversity
      @SquatUniversity  Год назад +130

      The first day he couldn’t do a touchdown on a 4” height without pain but could if we used the band

      Must have been a really rewarding result 👏 👍 Amazing how many and diverse issues can a pistol squat reveal!

      ​@@SquatUniversity Do you think you could explain what was causing his pain? Obviously a stability issue but I feel like this case is different than your normal ones.

      ​@@newtonroberts590 presumably his glut medialis was not engaged on the left side whilst squatting, this means the femur isn't stabilised properly so there's stress on the knee joint which shouldn't be there. The band is pulling the knee inwards which requires the glut med to contract to prevent this, which is why it's reducing pain. His glut med wasn't weak, just wasn't working in coordination during the squat for some reason.

      Hey, I have the same problem with pain, except its in both of my shins (well, the tibialias anteriors) and I've tried doing this exercise, I managed 14 inches with both legs. I feel a sharp pain in both the shins when I squat down to around 90 degrees, although I have great hip mobility. So, do you have any idea what could be causing this? I'm asking you this since you seem quite knowledgeable about the subject, and tbh, I'm pretty desperate.

    I love it. I deal with shoulder pain when doing OHP. And it always blows me away how the correction is usually for a weak muscle

    GODDAMN IT THANKS. IT JUST HAPPENED TO ME 2 MONTHS AGO AND I'VE BEEN SUFFERING HAHAHAHA. I tried looking for anyone else who had this exact problem but I didn't find it. Then SU came for the rescue. Thanks!

    Another very interesting case and I like your intervention exercises as always. But as a PT I’m still curious on what was the underlying problem with your pt’s shin. Was it compartment syndrome maybe?

  • @amixofgeekcontent
    @amixofgeekcontent Год назад +23

    I've watched a lot of squat University by now. and it's usually one side isn't as mobile as the other. so when the mobility tests didn't show this, I didn't know what would happen next.

  • @manotickstrengthconditioni9149

    Pretty amazing. I did this drill and, after a few reps, there was a little pop in my knee and things felt right again. Sure enough, I could do a BW squat pain free a few moments later! Love this channel.

    I thought about it and I think it was the medial hamstring on the bad leg or posterior abductor and same leg.

    I can't bench over 50 kg anymore and I was doing over 70 (I know its not much but it is for me)
    Use to do dips on ring, but now I can't even hold my self in vertical position

    Damn I have this same thing going on where my right leg won’t corkscrew into the ground. Been like that 3 years since I tore my hip labrum. Lots of inner and outer pinching in my tfl. I’m close to getting my deep squat, but can’t figure it out…😢
