FIX THESE Squat Mistakes!
Squat Mistakes and How to Fix Them
MISTAKE #1: Rounding Your Back
Rounding your back during a squat places unnecessary stress on your spine, increasing the risk of injury.
FIX: Focus on keeping your back straight and maintaining a neutral spine throughout the movement. Engage your core to support your posture.
MISTAKE #2: Knees Caving In on the Ascent
Allowing your knees to collapse inward can lead to joint strain, decreased squat efficiency, and potential injury.
FIX: Consciously drive your knees outward so they stay aligned with your toes during both the descent and ascent. Practicing this with lighter weights can help you build proper muscle memory.
MISTAKE #3: Heels Rising During the Descent
Lifting your heels off the ground creates instability, reduces power output, and compromises your squat efficiency.
FIX: Keep your heels firmly planted on the ground by focusing on distributing your weight evenly through your midfoot and heels. If flexibility is an issue, work on ankle mobility.
MISTAKE #4: Barbell Not Aligned with the Midfoot
When the barbell is misaligned with your midfoot, it can throw off your balance and reduce the effectiveness of the squat.
FIX: Always position the barbell directly over your midfoot before unracking and throughout the lift. This ensures optimal balance and power transfer.

when i do this i fall over
and if we have long femurs and cant stand too upright?
I do the bending knees inwards thing when lifting back up
Is that wrong too
Its obvious…
If we were in the same city, Iโd gladly hire you as my personal trainer. Big fans๐๐ผ๐ฅ
false. due to evryone having different legs lenght, their squat would need using other type of form for them totarget the same muscle as the exercise suppose to target
I don’t do the traditional squat because I value my lumber and vertebral disks, incline goblet squats, Romanian deadlifts and leg extension are the only leg exercises I do.
is it normal to have a little tight back after doing squats or am i in danger?
Long femur people are quite puzzled with the deep squat ๐
Awesome form ๐ช
Tip toe squats are for pro donโt risk engaging more muscle without proper stability training
I thought to myself, "i can do this"
I just did a squat with 45ยฐ ROM ๐๐๐
Stop takin advices about squats from some1 who do them with jordan sneakers ๐
Perfect ๐
The sound is way too loud
Just want to say if you have Bad knees like me itโs totally cool to put 1,25kg plates on the ground to ease the stress put on them by only standing of them with your heels and the rest of the foot on the ground
Knees in on squat has actually been proven to not be harmful
Nice vid. So much coping in comments lol

The forcing the heels to the floor would tear my Achilles in half

My hips donโt let me squat that low without dipping my tailbone. I need wedges or squat shoes to keep me in line
How are you supposed to stand up straight if your traps can’t hold up that much weight.
Bro No way
I can’t fix my feet to the ground
It doesn’t make sense
Femur to torso ratio plays a key role in how you squat
This is bullshit. pointing out mistakes on squat form without saying why it has that mistake and what is the root cause of it would be misleading. All can do a very deep squat form but these is because of many factor like lifestyle, anatomy, and underlying common illness or underdevelope muscle related or use in squat. Like for example people with longer legs lean forward than those who have long torsos
๐๐๐
If I sit like you I will fall back because I have long femur
Wait I been doing it right this whole time ๐ i thought i sucked at the form ๐
Can anyone do barbell squats by putting their feet straight?
Bro thatโs Tong Platz ๐ณ
Why does it hurt my back evey time i try correcting my form?
First mistake? Wearing Nike to squat in
But if I can’t bring my palms close to the shoulders is it bad, I kinda grab a bit wider ๐
Painfully obvious
Maturity is when you ban pineapples on pizza
Everything true except for the last one. You just got sort femurs bro. Some people have to lean like that.
Heels up is fine, you just shouldnโt raise them mid squat. Keep them elevated on small plates the whole time if your ankle mobility is bad
Great demonstration!
Squats is the hardest and master of all exercises after deadlifts
It took me 2 years to get the right squat form , it wasn’t easy for me
Nah donโt squat with flat shoes

Squats
Super helpful
Can you show one for people with long legs? We fall backwards because of the lenth of the legs vs torso. I can barely find videos that talk about this. It would be very helpful
My right knee absolutely fcking hates this exercise ๐๐ข
Very nice. Knees over toes. ALWAYS!
Idk I canโt squat deep without feeling like Iโm gonna fall over cuz of my long femur, I use a plate under my ankle and it helps so much I get a deep squat and feel much more stable
