    I started going to the gym and squating at age forty. I was shocked how awkward it felt, 40 kg was a trembling mess and couldn't get depth with good form. After 3, 4 months of practice and slow overload it started to get comfortable. Now bout two years in i can manage 140 kg ass to grass. It basically transformed me to a much more functional human, especially in opening up the hips and using the whole chain of the body. For general, 'functional' strenght you can't beat it imo, it's THE KING.

    I did one set of 7 with just the bar. It was ugly, my form was trash, and I was sore for a week. Off that one set
    5 weeks later today I hit 160 for 5 sets of 5....this single exercise is changing my entire body, my entire body is getting stronger. I'm leaner, my posture is better, I'm more explosive, I have much better mobility, and numerous other things

      I’ve always been scared of squats. They are super uncomfortable and make me sick to my stomach. I just started today. 4 sets of 12 with 35s on each side, below 90 degrees, and weight through my heels. I was DEAD, and that’s all I could do today… but I know it’ll pay off some day.

    • @nomaderic
      @nomaderic Год назад +1

      @Cory Johnson I was the same way. I couldn't even do a squat properly with just the bar. My legs would quiver and shake. My knees would cave in. I just kept going in there and it got better and better. Stick with it and I promise you in a month or so you'll be much better. Once your body gets used to the movement pattern you'll start adding weight like crazy. I went from just the bar to now my squat is around 345. Not elite or anything but pretty solid from where I started

      @@nomaderic thanks for replying. I totally forgot to mention I used the smith machine too (weak, I know). That’s why I could actually put some weight on. Next week, I’m just doing free-weight barbell squats and I’m just gonna start with the bar. If I can do a set of 10-12 with GREAT form, I’ll add a little weight. I just need to stay CONSISTENT with it every single week. Reading your comments are motivating me BIG TIME, because I’ve always been so discouraged because of how WEAK I am with squats…. But I’m realizing that it is hard for EVERYBODY in the beginning. I’m going to focus on form above all else and not worry about stacking a bunch of weight until I’m ready.
      345 is AWESOME dude. I hope to get there one day. Thanks again for taking the time to reply. Not to tell my life story, but i just got out of a 5 year relationship very recently and rather than sit around and cry about it, I’m going to better myself. Life is hard sometimes man 🙁. Thanks for the motivation. 💪🏻

    I developed big, defined legs over 20 years Of training with minimal / no squatting. In my late 30’s I decided to work on my mobility and technique and began squatting once to twice per week. It changed my entire body and my legs exploded to the point that people were asking if I was on gear. What I would say is that I approached it as a bodybuilder with higher reps and didn’t even try to go anywhere near a 1 rep max or anything less than 6 rep sets. The first few weeks were a mess but after a while it became second nature and the progression built very quickly.

    I hear you guys gush about deadlifts and squats and I totally agree but if you like those than there is an excersize that combines the benefit of both...
    CLEANS!!!! basically a more full range of motion deadlift plus a front squat.
    It's definitely a hard movement to teach and it may take time to put any weight on but it does magic for the body!

      2) clean, press, lower bar to back
      3) clean, place bar on front delts, do front squat
      4) zercher squat.. dl the bar, place against hip, squat down, place arms under bar
      5)pistol squats
      6) place bar in corner, do landmine squat
      7) bulgarian split squat
      8) goblet squat
      9) sissy squat
      10) bodyweight squat

    But is it better then the deadlift ?

    • @iamanonymous4191
      @iamanonymous4191 2 года назад +1

      Yes and no. No, because the deadlift works the upper back and forearms in addition to the other muscles. That's about it. And the squat is better than deadlifts because of this: it is a double-joint movement meaning it flexes the hips and extends the knee. The deadlift is almost exclusively a hip flexion lift, with minimal knee extension. So the squat works all posterior chain muscles as well as the anterior muscles such as the quads, abductors, abs, and tibialis anterior. The second reason why it's fundamentally better is the recovery aspect. Deadlifting is extremely fatiguing and realistically shouldn't be performed more than once a week. Squatting takes shorter to recover from and can be done much more frequently, which in turn will be beneficial in the long run. It's a whole package exercise and like the deadlift, it's the most primal human movement.

      Leg Press and Hack Squats will help with asthetics, but they aren't quite the same as a squat. Squats are a compound movement that work the whole lower body as well as the core. It will build much better functional strength, improve mobility, and more.
