Thank you sir, for creating and running Squat University. Your channel helps me so much. It’s incredible that I can access all of this knowledge and expertise with ease from my phone. Keep up the amazing work boss 🤘
Used to carry 5 gallon bucket of water for like 30 ft and had to fill up 4 50 gallon barrel for family's horses. Hadda do it 3x a week. Where I live at we had to drive 2 miles to a watering hole. Not to mention hauling fire wood each winter as we only had wood burning stove. Had a good core, not toned or anything, but I could move pretty quick for a 250 lbs guy. I think doing such chores kept me from having bad spine in a bus accident during high school despite being overweight. Trying to get back into that shape after neglecting my core and my health for last 10 years or so. These videos have been helpful at doing all sorts of exercises
I wish I could make a playlist of RU-vid shorts. All these videos are great! Edit: If you have youtube premium, you SHOULD have the option to save this short to a playlist. Now I'm pumped to try this later. Edit 2: If you don't have youtube premium, you should be able to save to a playlist as well. Thank you all!
idk if the save to playlist in the settings is RU-vid premium exclusive, but if it is, you go into your history, click on the three dots on the upper right of the short you want to save, and then save to playlist.
Need this! Thank you , I’m thinking I strained my QL muscles from jumping hard when I was fatigued. Your videos as well as others over the past years though have taught me to listen and feel my body more and I’ve been able to rehab with movement and continue to work. 2 years ago I hurt my back and I was barely able to move for weeks. I’ve taken control, and it feels amazing
Man I really enjoy this channel because I have sciatica and I’m 19. It’s so painful but I’ve been doing these course stability exercises and I noticed I’m able to manage better.❤
Great short ! One thing that piss me off about the shorts is that you can't save them unless you copy paste the url. I'll try to remember this this is great !
Man did this while watching it. 10 minutes on the left side and 7 minutes on the right side. Using I treadmill desk to walk while watching other SquatUniversity videos.
I love this, very well explained and you showed a visual of the specific muscle groups that are targeted when performing these exercises. Which helps better understand how the movements target specific muscle groups. You gave the what, the why, the how and the where. Great job, I’d love to see more of these kind of videos to learn.
for anyone that wants an extremely comprehensive core workout i recommend tony horton's ab ripper x. its like ~20 minutes of high intensity core movements that will absolutely knock the wind out of you
Funny, I do these without knowing with the exception of the marches in place, good addition. One I might add but may be off focus on abs is offset weighted lunges. Offset, one heavy kettlebell, one light; heavy on the drop leg and the light one held upside - down by shoulder for stability
I’ve been doing some version of a suitcase carry for years. It’s just a farmers workout exercise. Good to see it’s getting recognition Now move the weight to your shoulder 😏
I miss doing weight training. Covid fucked up my breathing when I first got it back in 2020 and led me down a shitty path of depression and alcoholism. Gained 70 pounds since then and just lost all motivation. Fuck COVID
Notice how everything involves your legs too. The skeletal muscles in your legs are huge, and developing those muscles will increase that metabolic rate way more than pounding away at the tiny muscles in your arms. Having those large leg muscles developed is going to help your overall leanness and make those abs actually show up.
I carry all my groceries on one arm, switch every block I walk. Same thing. Don’t forget to train exercises that move your core too, not just exercises that keep your core from moving
Ive been doing the suitcase carry for a year and a half now. It will bulletproof your core. I do 1/2 mile carry, do a 30 minute kettelbell/calisthenics workout, and another 1/2 mile carry. It sucks but it's the best
Damn! I just recently realised that the function exercises and incredibly helpful. At least for an average person looking to just get fit and build strength gradually ❤
Stuff like this is why i love calisthenics + yoga-like stretching. You dont just train you main muscles like the Abs or Biceps you train all those little connectores, stablelizers etc as well, leading to an overall great body controll without having to create an extra workout around it.
These are good for stability in general but people really need to start doing low bar squats and conventional deadlifts more often. They’re difficult but they will build the core. I think we should do these lifts shown here too though.
None of these exercise complete trunk flexion, which is how you target the rectus abdominis (6 pack muscles). This is more of a core stability post, NOT a 6 pack post.
I always wondered how I got a good core despite not doing much work to it, my job for the past 5 years has been picking up flight cases with a suitcase carry
Mike at The Humanist Report covered the “we’re coming for your children” clip circulating online. Around 26:50 in this program it’s mentioned. The chant is actually “we’re not going shopping” referring to rainbow capitalism. The “we’re coming for your children” chant was done by agitators near the camera recording the clip (presumably so it would be circulated as anti-queer propaganda).
