by squatting low bar to parallel you fucking poof
stop trying to emulate your favorite memelifter, they have 2 inch femurs and shallow hip sockets, your anthropometry and hip morphology is probably not as conducive to ATG squatting seeing as you're having these issues with it
Jace Hall
this. just do parallel. atg is a meme.
personally, i just tap my ass on my bench for each rep while always maintaining glute and quad tension. atg fucks my knees
Connor Nguyen
this lmao your squat will NEVER be as pretty as this chinese fuck selected out of millions and millions of little chinese babies to train since a young age with the best science, equipment, and coaches in the world
Andrew Smith
Also roids

>people with poor mobility, flexibility and fucked up joints and posture, can't do atg squat, tells you that atg is a meme
do mobility and flexibility drills, squat with an empty bar and build up from there to build the strength at the lower part of the movemen, how ever depending on your height and length of your limbs it can be harder to actually go atg, so in case you are actually unable to go atg, go as low as your body allows, wich is always bellow parallel if you do mobility and flexibilty drills
Nicholas Wood
roids are illegal sweetie
Jose Robinson
Read Starting Strength and start squatting lowbar.
Saved my knees and back, not even mememing.
Matthew Evans
Stop squatting ATG. You don't get bonus points to anybody except weak autistic faggots on anime imageboards. Hip crease below the knee is all you need.
Landon Nguyen
>Flexibility and mobility work will change the shape of your bones
Lol
Landon Martin
you probably dont really have APT. Yeah your but sticks out a little but its whitin normal range so there is nothing to fix
Logan James
Switch to front squat oly style and use shoes to go low, or just back squat to parallel which works fine.
Or just use a trap bar or hack squat and take even more torque off your backm
Christian Parker
Only fat people squat low-bar
Liam Adams

Matthew Bell
never gonna make it
Colton Campbell
>not reading my entire post
bet you don't even squat too
Ryan Campbell
This. As long as you're lower than parallel, you're good. Go as low as you can, but don't force yourself into possitions that your body structure clearly can't handle.
Charles Diaz
Not even Lu squats ATG you dumb dumb. Stop falling for the meme. Watch his max attempt here. It's still flawless but nowhere near as deep as you people will have it to be.
Ryan Lee
Pic for the people too lazy to watch the video.
Anthony Ortiz
>In the entire video Lu Squats as low as possible, even bounces when ATG to warm up a bit
>Doesn't squat as low during MAX attempt
>lel brah ATG is a meme
Sebastian Cox
this is very close to lu's catch height for his clean and his front squats are not significantly deeper, i'd argue semantically this is atg for lu; the femur bone is clearly well below parallel in the image.
that being said a lot of people have shit tier leverages and poor stabilizing muscles and won't be able to squat atg without splitting their legs out very far apart and rotating their hip externally a lot, which may not be necessarily comfortable, and i wouldn't necessarily say that all people should squat atg if they cannot comfortably squat atg.
Ian Bennett
Man speaks truth
Oly shoes saved my life when going atg (Both high bar and front)
Ryan Lee
And people say not to stretch before squats because you'll lose strength and tension. Kek.
Lucas Cox
He definetly goes way deeper than that
m.youtube.com
Look at his catch position, people talk about leverage way too much here, while they sit on their chairs the whole day and question why they can't deep squat, it's more about mobility, no one in OLY will not ATG, it's a must for catching during cleans and snatches, the foot position may vary because of bone structure, but that's about it
Ryder Martin
What's the dangling thing at the end of the bar collar? You can see it at 0:44-0:50
Easton Sanders
poo
Kayden Ward
Are bow legs master race for squatting?
Isaac Cook

Jace Young
the lock
Ethan Howard
Except most of the "stretching" is specific to the movement and is usually just a lightweight varient you brainlet
William Sullivan
Look at how far his knee goes, it's because he has crazy ankle dorsiflexion and of his bone structure, it's as deep as he can go
Do you really think people here would squat that way?? People here don't have as near the ankle flexibility and think bellow pararelle means powerlifting squats - as soon as you hit paralelle you go up, don't move your knees too far
Jace Wood
Oh, like a spin lock collar?
Parker Harris
Replace squats with paused squats for four weeks. 3 seconds pause, no stretch reflex allowed. Start with empty bar. Load up in 20 kilo increments. Top sets 4x4 across.
