NASM Overhead Squat Assessment || How to do it AND Real World Application
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- Whether you are studying for your NASM CPT Exam or you just want to better understand how the body moves - this will be the most comprehensive video breakdown you can find on the web!
Coach Joe Drake breaks down each component that you need to look at when taking clients through the NASM Overhead Squat - as well as some major insight that the book leaves out into problem solving what you see in the moment and differentiating between movement compensations - and clients who just need a little bit of coaching to get in the right position.
This tends to be a major limitation of most standardized fitness assessments that not only can lead new trainers astray in making assumptions about overactive and underactive muscles - but also not serve personal trainers in the need to create a fun and diverse initial training experience.
Checkout the video above and break out your notebook for taking notes as this video breaks down all of the ins-and-outs of this popular movement assessment.

I just wanted to say, you might not see this, but I have been stressing about this exam the minute I scheduled it. I knew I would have to know proper postural alignment and how to identify weak or strong muscles, but I didn't think I could actually learn it. This video was SO helpful in the fact that I not only memorized it, but I was visioning exactly how you described it. So thank you, so much, from the bottom of my heart, for making such an informative video to help me. I passed the exam first try!
That's why we do this, Brandon! Thanks for the feedback.
Congratulations on passing the exam!!!!!
Congratulations 🎊
Just want to say thank you SO much for these videos. I passed my NASM exam this morning all thanks to you. Watched this video no joke 20 times. You are a celebrity to me.
I LOVE to hear this! Congrats!
Congratulations
I took my exam this morning and passed! This video definitely helped with understanding and memorizing the muscles!
Love hearing that!! What’s next?! Training job lined up already or what?!
Great video. It makes way more sense when you see the video with the vocab than just reading the text book. And the pace you are going makes it easier to comprehend . Thanks for sharing !!
Of course! Best of luck!
This what you are seeing is a masterpiece video on Overactive and Underactive Guys. I passed my exam because of this today which made me understand so easily after reading watching it many times. This video was a game changer for me and guys all of his videos regarding Examination is very informative. I’m grateful that’s all I can say to clear my exam on 29-11-23
Congrats on passing your exam! I'm glad that the videos were helpful!
Always do the posterior view. I see hip dip or hip shift often from the rear view.
I paused this video SEVERAL TIMES to take notes! Thank you for this video!!!
Love it!
This is the best & most comprehensive video I have seen on OHS. I really appreciate the little tid-bits of nuance that you mention/allude to in this video as well. Thank you for creating this!
The only comment I would have added to this video is mentioning that a person's anatomy may also influence how a person squats (in addition to muscles being overactive and/or underactive). I don't thinking going into detail on that would have been needed (or even feasible) for this video, but a quick mention would also be helpful for some viewers.
Thanks Dale! We try our best!
Thank you for such a thorough review of the OHSA. It helped give me the “why” for the muscles that are over/under active, which helps me own the information rather than just memorizing it. I think your simplified explanations of how the kinetic chains affect the posture through transitional movements is missing in both NASM’s CPT and CES. I would like to see more realistic examples of these distortions from regular people who are not trained or experienced in proper squat techniques, more in line with what a trainer would typically encounter with an average client. Thanks for the fabulous work!
Glad it was helpful for you!
Absoloutely fantastic video...very thorough and clear...much appreciated.
That’s what we like to hear! Try and keep things simple and not over complicate things. Appreciate the comment and feedback!
The best video ever on youtube to help trainers how to be great in the assessment area. Really thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
What a great teaching. Soooo helpful. Im a NASM qualified PT, so I know this assessment. This teaching is soooo helpful for me though. THANK YOU for this great teaching. Cole done a great job acting 😊
Glad you liked it! And Cole is definitely a great actress!

I really think your videos are more useful to me than than NASMs videos

Awesome video. Gave great clarity on the topic. Thank you so much
Yes! That's what I love to hear!

Thanks for the feedback, Kevin!
Love the girl taking the selfie around 18:35 😂

This was worth every minute. Very well explained. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Great coaching! Very articulate. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Such great info! 👍🏼
I wish I had this video when I was studying for the NASM exam lol 😂
I’ve been studying rigorously for about a week now and I have come a long way and am now passing mock exams, but to see someone demonstrate the assessments, joint actions and everything else has really helped me retain the info that much better, and even points out what you’ll identify in the real world.
This channel is super helpful!
Glad you like it!
Hello Drake, what book do you suggest PT read after the NASM Cert to remain update?
Hi Aisha! I typically don't recommend any specific books, but rather suggest focusing on getting a lot of hands-on experience in the first 2 years. Even better if you can do it while working under another trainer that has years of success.
@@Axiomfitnessacademy Thanks Drake, currently using your content to prep for my Nasm test this week. Keep doing what you do, I'm sure we'll cross paths on this journey 💥
Isn’t is better to keep the toes slightly open when you squat?
Varies from person to person. but for the standard NASM Assessment it calls for straight ahead.
man i don't know what its worth but you did a great job with info and presentation tyle.. good job man .. and kickbox lady
I really wish one of these awesome OHS assessment training videos would show someone who is not in the field doing the squats. I actually want to see what I'm looking for on people who are legit out of balance. It's not the same as someone simulating dysfunction.
Send me a video of you or someone else to axiomfitnessacademy@gmail.com 👉🏼 or even better join our Facebook Group and we can do one in there!

Glad you liked it!
Weren't her arms tired from keeping them up??
She's a boss.
@@Axiomfitnessacademy Yeah! but she did rest in between though. Maybe if she kept her arms up for entire video.
Thank you for the breakdown for under active and over active… I took the test in March failed by 4 points and there was a lot of questions on this. I was getting them confused… but I understand now. Thank you again
You got this! Glad I could help.
Where did you buy those pants?
John, those are from Lululemon.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! You’re content played a major role in me passing this morning! 🙌🏾
You're so welcome!
Thank you very much for the video, it’s very very valuable for me as a personal trainer 😊❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thorough coaches... Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Omg THANK YOU!
Help you better understand it?
so does this mean that some muscles by design are meant to be stronger than others?
Sort of. Larger muscles obviously have more *capacity* for strength. For example, the biceps will never be able to produce more force (strength) than the lats because physically they are much smaller and can't possible be grown as large.
This dude needs an award for these video mehn!
Thank you so much!
Thank you very much sir
You're welcome!
Explained extremely well!!
Thanks so much! Hope it helped!
Bless you for this!!
Happy to help!
GREAT VID!
Thanks!
