During a recent CK-FMS event, Gray Cook grabs Master RKC instructor, Brett Jones, for a quick session on technique and variations of squatting with Kettlebells.
5:53 The sensation of falling backwards is actually more severe without weight than with the weight. The kettlebell helps keep your center of balance closer to your feet so that you won't feel like you're going to fall backwards. To coach single leg squats, some clients can perform it better with weight versus without weight because of this.

3:16 Do we have to say "bing" and "boom"? Yes. The sound effects are essential.

Brett is "Butt winking" when he breaks parallel. Isn't this an issue? Stuart McGill says this will lead to lumbar disc bulging.

Great video, thanks. However the 'music' is really distracting.

Hi Gray, Can you explain to me to what degree clients are to externally rotate the hips? I have most of my clients feet out about 10 degrees during a squat keeping the knees in line with that 2nd toe. I see here that the instructor is externally rotating the hips and feet further than 10 degrees and letting the knees bow out. I was always taught that externally rotating causes synergistic dominance. Can you explain how this is not causing synergistic dominance? Thanks!

Do you mean externally rotating the femurs when you say hips?

5-10 degrees is an acceptable amount of external rotation at the feet. Synergistic dominance is caused mainly by muscle imbalances. Having a tight psoas can cause synergistic dominance no matter the type of squat, so addressing any strength, flexibility, mobility or stability imbalances at the hip will reduce your risk of developing synergistic dominance more so than subtle changes in external rotation at the hip or feet. The appropriate knee position is one that allows the weight to pass evenly through each meniscus. At 07:00, he squats with dynamically varus knees likely because he's anticipating his elbows making contact with his knees. A few seconds later at 07:04, he puts the weight down with the correct knee position. Isn't that interesting?

sir, your pelvis does tuck in at 5:33.

It's minimal and, with those loads, inconsequential. This mimics a third world squat, where pelvis tucking is perfectly fine. However, if squatting heavy, this could be a problem.....but that could be easily solved by staying tighter and going just below parallel and not AtG.
