So why can I not get remotely close to a front rack? So much pain in my wrists and I can’t tell if my lats or triceps are effed! It’s ridiculous how immobile I am
Ive always heard to drive the knees apart when squatting. It looks like everyone in this video has there knees driving inward. Is that a weightlifter thing?
You are correct on your cue. Ideally, the knees should track over the toes on the way down, and then reverse that path when rising. A little bit of valgus is not a problem, and often occurs when coming up from the bottom with a heavy load. You'll notice the people doing a lot are generally failing or near to failing their lift.
It's common with weightlifters because they squat way bellow parallel. You need internal rotation of the femurs to get more strength out of the hole, so at limit lifts the knees might come in a little bit while trying to stay upright. Not intentional, but it's not a mistake.
oohohhhh my goooood!!!😱😱😱 you are crazy?! 😱😱😱 you are all abducting your knees on the way up, you are going to destroy your knees!!! That's the intention, to destroy your knees!!! 😱😱😱😱😱
@andream9977 keeping the knees inline with the feet and hips, pointing in the same direction as the toes. I'm kinda shocked by how much knee cave I saw in this video as this is something beginners get taught, and it's pretty important if you're going to lift for years.
