The 2 things that always had me confused is 1. I took chest to mean parallel to the walls throughout the exercise. 2. I was always told to never let your extend out past your toes. If so, that's wrong.

I haven't squatted for the better part of 8 or 9 years out of fear and not getting the form right and not seeing results, The thought of having a lot of weight on my back and going down with it scared the hell out of me, I don't really know what motivated me or what happened but one day I took them really seriously and toned down the upper body training so I could focus on legs properly, fast forward two years later, I weigh 70 pounds more and my overall strength has almost doubled, tripled for legs, up until that point I couldn't go over 170 lbs bodyweight.

I am 50 and I squat heavy. I squat 500 plus lbs. Do you have any suggestions on a product good for knee and hip soreness? I have days where my right hip and knee or a little sore. I work through it by warming up good but I would like to get a topical product to help me out. Thank you in advance for your help.

Wow. Pretty amazing and wonderful instructions, so VERY knowledgeable about the muscle groups and all that. You don’t use a back belt sometimes?

What's up Mike. I recently had neck surgery for a fractured vertebrae. Although I'm not ready to do much of any lifting, is there an alternative to doing a traditional squat that give you similar results. Thanks in advance brother. Love the great tips you provide 💪🏿

For a guys who squats with some considerable amount of weight his legs are still behind his upper body after all these years.

It's not just your opinion. Heavy squats were the steroids of the pre-steroid era.
