    22 years ago my sister was doing a body shaping /building competition for beginners. Her trainer had her do 30 squats, 30 pushups and 80 sit ups everyday --as well her weight and cardio work out . In solidarity I did the daily exercizes with her. That was 22 years ago and I STILL do those 3 exercizes 6 days a week ( as well as other work outs). I am now up to 50 push ups and squats, and 120 sit ups.These three exercizes work your entire body, so if you do nothing else, at least do some squats, pushups and sit ups almost daily!
    This video is great!

    I'm quite short, quite fat, and in my early 60s. A couple of months ago started cleaning up my act so to speak by modifying my diet. Just about 3 weeks ago watched a different RUclips video about squatting and decided to try. My goal was to work up to 50 a day. The first day, I couldn't even do 10! Now, three weeks later, I am squatting over 80 times a day, yesterday was 84, 70 today so far and I'll do 15 more shortly. Between the squats, 2 weeks, so far, of Intermittent Fasting 16/8, and healthy food choices, the weight is coming off, and I have more energy! This video was great, thank you for sharing this important information, 🙂💜

    I had a pretty bad knee injury and couldn’t do any squats or lunges for months. Part of my recovery before I got to squats and lunges was strengthening my core, and doing them with a yoga ball against a wall. I am fully recovered. The key is not to fully stop, even if you can only do upper body and core, do that. Thanks for the video!

      @@dcgaara890 There are soooo many core strengthening exercises, some of which you can use your knees… I usually do 45-min rounds 3-4 times a week. Planks are a really good start, mountain climbers, windshield wipers, bird dogs, flutter kicks, hip rises, side bends with dumbbells… From the floor, back flat on the floor you can do leg raises, making sure your back doesn’t arch and stays flat on the ground, reverse crunches are a good one too. There are so many. The main thing, for me, with my bad knee was to be sure I wouldn’t even kneel. But, there is a lot that you can do to stay in shape, or get in shape, even with bad knees. Don’t give up! :-)

    1 day of squats, 1 day of pushups, 1 day of some pulling (pullups or BW rows) then repeat cycle on 4th day. The time in between will allow enough rest for repair/growth. Daily mobility or stretching and maybe twice a week get your heart rate up doing what ever you like. Do this for the rest of your life. Sounds like a lot but only take 30-45 minutes OR you can spread it out over the day EX --> 3-4 set of 50-60 BW Squats whenever you get the opportunity. Same with pushups ( I recommend incline so you can get higher volume and then gradually over time lower to or close to floor) I've done kitchen counter pushups which sounds lame but after 50 reps of correct form and tension in the muscle you will realize the effectiveness of angles. Poor form/speed is what causes injury So everything slow controlled and keep tension in the muscle. This is a lifetime approach to longevity and being consistent which is what will always have you in shape

      as far as I'm concerned there isn't a favorite squat exercise, it depends on what you want to achieve, on how you physically get to the workout, on what "amount" of work you are ready to face. For example, also perform the squat (with a load of 20Kg) with eccentric work (ie "breaking the descent into three steps maintaining the position for 5 seconds") until reaching the position of maximum flexion of the legs (for example 90 degrees).
      the ascent must be carried out "explosively" until the end of the repetition with the pelvis aligned with the trunk and the thigh area and contracted buttocks
      the weight of the exercise will be discharged on the heels, look up and torso out throughout the execution of the repetition

It is indeed a wonderful safe and beneficial exercise that I have been carrying out for a long time. I have never been an advocate of barbell squats as there are significant risk of injury when doing barbell squats due to far to heavy weight loading and bad form, as an alternative use hand dumbbells at your sides if you feel you need additional resistance.

    My favourite movement. In tears with sadness when I performed my last set of squats ever (2014) the day before my right knee replacement. The left one has been screaming for a good 3 years now but managing to hold out. 66 years old now and as an ex NABBA competitor, I trained 'old school'. Two lots of wraps on each knee. Although we were mostly all monsters in those bad old days I will admit to it being the very best of times. A very serious car accident put an end to my involvement on the stage but my ex wife of 34 years ago went on to compete at Miss universe standard. In those days we rubbed shoulders with some of the greats of that period. Sat opposite Arnie at dinner after his seminar at Wembley arena - Sergio - Zane - Bertil Fox - My great friend Bill Richardson who finally won top spot in 78 - Jefferson King - the amazing performer Vince Brown....The amazing junior Andy Hornby who sadly passed all too soon
    plus so many more friends. I never gave the gym up even though my body was just a little broken. Passed knowledge and experience to the noobs for many many years until we moved to France 2 years ago. Some of them went on to do really well with Nabba and IFBB. Still keeping in touch by email with the loveliest of people Lance Dreher who taught me a new way to train due to the physical constraints caused by the accident. 3 sets of 100 reps ea set starting light to medium to heavy to REALLY heavy broken down as follows - 50 30 12 & 8 counted as one set due to only resting 40 secs between each.
    Watched all your vids and thoroughly enjoyed them each and every one of them. Fantastic knowledge in giving the inexperienced and intermediate great advice regarding Biomechanics and Kinesiology. Wow do I wish I had that time again with you bright young things and the incredible knowledge of the science you incorporate behind this sport.

      Jim, Thank you for your post. Very moving and I wish you all the best. I also suggest you take a look at Ben Patrick, The Knees over Toes Guy. I'm 59, and Bens teaching has helped me to rehab a knee that the doctor told me just the get a shot of Cortisone if I planned to do a lot of walking such as on vacation. My knee is not perfect, yet, but it is not causing the pain it used to and I can jog and snow ski again without being in pain for the following week. God bless you and your family!

  • @JosephMusgrove
    @JosephMusgrove 2 года назад +256

    Squats are great and I end my resistance band workouts with three sets of 20 squats each set. I see people sometimes bending at the knees and going straight down which can put excessive stress on the knees. When doing a proper squat you are pushing your butt out. One thing that helps me with good form is to imagine there is a chair behind me that I am sitting down in.

    • @Anoiny
      @Anoiny 2 года назад +15

      Actually, I found that going all the way down greatly improved my knee stability and overall mobility of the lower body. I have a bad knee (injury and overtraining from youth), and at first I also thought going all the way down was a bad idea, but no. You just have to do it the right way and introduce progression to make your knee gradually stronger to be able to handle it. I started with lunges where I used the full range of motion on the front knee, but I either put the front leg on a bench/incline and/or used table/chair to help lift myself up to lessen the stress. And then gradually as the knee got stronger I got to the normal lunge. I did full-range squats as well but didn't need to lessen the stress. But again you could make the squat easier on the knee with table/chair/walking sticks or TRX or some other tool. I was inspired to do this by the knees-over-the-toes-guy. I was also surprised to find out that the extreme squats hurt me less than the "correct" ones. Something about the knee in the right angle just does not work well for me and my knee always started to hurt when I did the normal squats. But your mileage may vary, tho. I just wouldn't write off the full range exercises completely.

    800-1200 squats a day for me. Here's why:
    I'm a Ring Fit addict. My fellow Ring Fit players know that the game includes TONS of squats. I've been playing the game for a couple of years, and after beating the game 3 times I decided it would be fun to do my 4th playthrough of the game using just the squats. I loved it. I'm on my 6th playthrough now and I've been doing 800-1200 squats a day for seven months. One time I messed up my knees and couldn't do squats for 6 weeks, but then I went right back to it once my knees healed.
    I do squats outside of the game, too, because you can't do weighted squats in Ring Fit while holding the ring. I do most of my squats during Ring Fit, and I do squats with weights outside of the game.
    Haven't gotten any thinner from it. It takes more than just squats to get thinner.

    Some years ago I sustained a sudden crashing sideways fall on to an unforgiving road surface when a front
    wheel puncture occurred whilst riding my bicycle. A diagnosis of lumbar spinal stenosis was the outcome
    but I've managed to maintain mobility albeit with the use of support when walking. However, the free-standing
    squat movement between hand bars has provided a solid addition to an indoor cable exercise programme.
    I am currently doing three sets of 40 reps. with an increasing feeling of ease that should promote progress
    in my limited domestic exercise programme. When training with weights years ago (I'm now in my 70s),
    I used respectable poundages for sets of squats and I strongly suspect that the strength these built in my
    hips and thigh areas helped prevent the likelihood of a fractured pelvis from the shock in the accident
    described above.. Squats are a great way of building core strength and contributing to a better circulation.

      There is no shock in squatting actually, which you get for example in running. For squatting only, it’s recommended to do it in a shoe with a flat sole. Or even barefoot. That way your entire foot is working. At least that’s what I was taught by professional weightlifters. And all their pro shoes have flat soles. For jump squats, stick with the shock absrobing. Good luck on your journey!

    I'm 45 and I do classic squats, anywhere from 50 to 200 per workout. I do not use barbells. When my knees start talking to me I tend to call it quits. I've been doing them for a few months and have noticed my stronger legs when I run. I have also dropped 3 lbs after staying the same weight for a year.

    As with any repetitive exercise, you may have to modify it to maintain your own joint health, shallower squats to reduce arthritic knee pain and inflammation !!

    ive always been in and out of working out. i go through my fazes like everyone else. the strange thing is that in 40 odd years of working out here and there i have never encorporated squats into my workouts UNTIL NOW. having seen this obsession in so many gym bunnies and rats and seen how amazing these people look and feel after doing my further research mainly on youtube i have started doing front squats with a barbell and i have to say ive been doing it now every morning at 6am for only 2 wks in before work 3 sets of 8 reps and wow the changes occur very quickly. my muscles are already much firmer. i feel tighter in general. more strength in m y legs climbing stairs for instance. im keeping this up for sure along with an upper body workout. wish i started squats so many yrs ago.

    I saw a video recently that stated that if senior citizen or elderly person only did one exercise everyday, then that exercise should be squats. So I do two active squats where I hold the squat for 4 seconds.

    Make sure to use a controlled down...
    And no bouncing / popping up. At least until you are 4 or more months into real training and fitness. Plyometrics, the jumping / popping part of coming out of an exercise is meant to increase power. There is a direct connection to torn knee ligaments and tendons from plyometrics. You need to be very careful. These are parts of your musculature that do not receive much blood (in decreasing order: muscles receive the most blood, tendons receive less, and ligaments receive very little). Blood to the injured area enables healing. When you injure an area that receives little blood, the healing takes a long time, if it occurs at all. Older people, in particular, are very prone to injury from popping. be careful.
