Increase Your Squat NOW

June 28, 2009 on 2:32 pm | In Strength Training | 3 Comments

As an update, I did send out the newsletter exclusive free bonus on improving your squat. 

Here is just one of the comments I received from a friend of mine on Facebook (Add me as a friend HERE), John Cortese:

Hey Joe, nice squat bonus! I have been using the “knees out” cue for a while with the athletes and clients I work with but I totally forgot about “spreading the floor” cue. Instantly fixed some form issues with a couple athletes today after I used that and their squatting looked TONS better. No more damn valgus force on the knees! Thanks again.

For those of you that missed out, I will leave it as a newsletter bonus item this week.  Sign up for the newsletter over in the right hand column and the squat bonus will be right on the thank you page for you to download!

  1. Coach Hashey,

    Regarding you squat bonus points on neck position, what are your thoughts regarding the following article by Dr. Eric Cobb, especially regarding neutral neck, eye position, and (for some) Neck Extension (but not hyperextension) combined with axial extension? (that is if you catch a few free moments and feel inspired to give it a read, but if not, I fully understand)

    Thanks again for being such an excellent resource and sharing your knowledge.

  2. Jack, good job bringing the science. I did take a minute to skim the article. It seems like we agree. Out of the hole of a squat, looking up will facilitate the movement.

    Some coaches tell people to tuck their neck back during the movement. I havent found much difference with that, but looking up out of the hole has helped.

    The points about DL in that article are important as well!
