The depth of your squat is without doubt one of the most essential facets of your leg coaching which you can get proper. Not doing so may have you dealing with the repercussions in your physique, significantly as you proceed to try so as to add weight to the bar. On this video, I’m going to point out you the easiest way to find out how low you need to squat and extra importantly, what to do to repair no matter is holding again your depth so you can begin getting down as little as you need to.
It begins with an analysis of the joints of the knees, hips and decrease again. I can let you know this, whereas you’ll have heard the recommendation that squatting ass to grass is rarely a nasty factor in your knees I can let you know that’s blatantly unhealthy data. When you’ve got a meniscal tear, full depth squatting is without doubt one of the absolute worst issues you are able to do in your knees.
That stated, in case your knees are wholesome otherwise you merely have tendon associated points which might be holding again your squat depth then studying easy methods to squat in a different way will assist to offset these stresses and get you again to full depth very quickly. Relating to the hips and decrease again nevertheless, it is advisable deal with one other apparent level of suggestions as to how low you need to go. I’m speaking in regards to the butt wink.
For these not conversant in the butt wink, it’s the speedy transition on the backside of the squat from a impartial or anteriorly rotated pelvis to a posteriorly rotated place. The quantity of ballistic stress this locations on the L4-L5 and L5-S1 vertebrae is harmful, and is prone to result in a disc pathology down the highway. That stated, it would be best to intervene and proper the reason for this previous to continued loading so you’ll be able to keep away from the repercussions and study to learn from full squatting (the proper approach) sooner slightly than later.
The potential causes of this are as follows (time stamps included that will help you extra simply navigate to the problems which might be affecting you and the issues you will have to do to repair your drawback).
Hip Capsular Mobility (5:04)
Hip Anatomy Restriction (6:42)
Pelvic Muscle Tightnesses (9:25)
Ankle Mobility or Flexibility Deficits (11:39)
Decreased Pelvic Stability (13:49)
You should definitely not carry out the usual check that many advocate for ruling out the primary three. That check, as proven on this video, is critically flawed and never taking into consideration the correct angle of the torso and the precise quantity of hip flexion that’s occurring throughout a squat. Should you do the check the proper approach and get your torso nearer to the ground you’ll study whether or not or not you continue to could be coping with one of many first three principal causes and might drill down from there as I present you, to find out the foundation trigger.
If you’ll be able to carry out this revised check with out dropping your skill to take care of a non-posteriorly rotated pelvis then you’ll be able to skip forward to the ankle mobility and pelvic stability portion of the video. Should you do have one of many first three points, you’ll have to watch the rest of the potential causes since it isn’t unusual to nonetheless have extra elements which might be enjoying into your butt wink and making your low squats unsafe.
The hot button is figuring out what’s fallacious along with your squat kind after which being keen to repair it over time. It didn’t take you a day to develop the problems which might be possible stopping you from squatting ass to grass with out butt wink. It received’t take you a day to repair it. In case you are dedicated to enhancing your squatting kind nevertheless, you will notice important modifications which might be going to fortify your physique within the squat and stop you from getting injured doing this crucial leg exerise sooner or later.

"Beginner, expert position" on tiktok…
good
Jesse is Vlad the Impaler twin !
Very usefull! the video charmed me, jeff
Man! I need you as a personal coach
This video might have saved me from ego squatting ATG and ruining my L3-L4-L5-S1 discs.
I’m curious about how long Jesse is going to put up with the “jokes” towards him…
18 minuts for 1 simple question
I've been working out for around 8 years I would say now. I was at a cross roads with pain In my back and legs and this channel saved me.. With great videos just like this… I actually had a week gluteus medius and I did the drills this channel said and it changed my life… man is good at his job
That face at 4:48
God of physical anatomy… Thnks jeff
Knees out
Thank you. I realise this is an old video, but very helpful and well explained!. I squat wide and low with some butt wink. Re the pelvic stability aspect, with anterior tilt to a box squat to improve my drive from parallel – I have been starting at too low a depth which might explain why I have been experiencing some compensation to other muscles; tfl and lower back with switching off of adductors. The drill at the end is really helpful.
Jeff likes goin deep…
This has been extremely helpful! I have a bunch of these issues. I couldn't figure out why I sucked so bad at squatting lol. Now I know.
Really helpful thank you.
Very excellent guidance. I shall stop trying to squat any lower, or achieving more hip flexion for a squat as I believe my 6 month old hip prothesis (partial hip replacement following a fracture) qualifies as an anatomical restrictor. I imagine I also still have pelvic instability and I know my knees don't like flexing so much either. I'm a very active 80 year old woman who enjoys pack packing in the mountains, and am anxious to get back to it and to be able to get low enough to set up my tent, etc.
Watched all this and realized I didn't have buttwink at all, why can't I go lower
Jesse is a good sport!!
So good, thanks.
why does jessie look like a fucking owl the way he blindly stares at the camera
This was great. I appreciate you.
The GOAT of gym fitness and technique
A lot of people get butt wink and shallow reps when they are simply loading too much with bad technique. If you push your knees out and drop your pelvis through better, butt wink reduces, but you will initially lift less and most guys don’t want to rep less load, they prefer to do crap technique to keep their ego afloat .
Jeff does such an amazing job of explaining the science behind anatomical movement. Its crazy!!!!!
11:46 Jeff be like: "This is Jesse's leg, DON'T even think for a second that it is mine." 🤣😆😂
I hope Jessie gets paid pretty well for the way he just lets you bend him over my gosh 😂
I'm about to make people mad.

Just adust your feet at the point your butt winks. Move your knees out.
Still, butt-wink is better than butt-HOLE wink. When a butt-hole winks, it stinks.
You are using terms unexplained. What’s a B— wink?
I am 185lbs, how much should I be able to squat when I am starting out?
I would love to train with this Guy
A full deep squat always affected my quads the most. But my knees!!!!
Then any squat imperils the spine.
I never do them anymore.
I've completely stopped regular squats, I only go ass to for now. If I can't handle the weight all the way in the hole, I don't want to handle it at all. It's the same reason I don't use a belt.
My go to work out channel tighten up Jesse
Without any doubt, this video is helpful and useful.
So clear. Really useful. Thank you.
Thanks for giving us the low down on squatters' rights!
I always thought my squad wasn't deep enough
