This is the only squat I do anymore. It doesnt compromise my chronically tight low back. I have to put plates under my heels to help with ankle/low back mobility, but im ok with that. Over time I'm able to decrease the heel lift. Makes it feel 1000% better & safer. It gets my glutes involved with a deep loaded stretch a lot more than in a back or front squat that just gave me a massive muscle imbalance over the years. If your back and hips and knees hurt and you squat and deadlift alot. STOP and try these. Superset with pendalay rows and hip thrusts your low back will be bulletproof after awhile.

Great video thanks, my OHS is mostly upright but I know I can do better! I passed all the tests but will try that last sitting exercise as I think it will work wonders!

What about the hips? I pass all the mobility tests for ankles,lats, thoracic.
any comments about specific biomechanical morphology like small torso, long femur, hip socket ?

search my channel for "long leg squat solutions" and improve your squat depth. Also articles on thebarbellphysio.com

That and he is wrong about the shoulder mobility part. The lats externally rotate the shoulder and since you need to load your back to squat. You should focus on that 🙄

Nope. They are a shoulder internally rotator. They are STRETCHED with shoulder flexion and external rotation. But when they contract they internally rotate, extend, and adduct

Great content. What about a video on single arm DB/KB squat?

I’m confused. He said test ankle mobility, and sometime people sit back like they don’t have good hip mobility…… is it one in the same or was this a mistake?

Often people with limited ankle mobility sit back more in the OHS giving them trouble with positioning. But sometimes people with good ankle mobility overemphasize the "sit back" cue often given in the squat and unnecessarily squat with a very forward torso angle.
