    This is a great tip! I've been squatting for a little while and I didn't know this (I've also been feeling funny in my shoulders when I squat and I think this will resolve that issue.) Thanks Squat University!!

    Help me i have 2 shoulders that are messed up, left one is in constant pain and cracks with any movement and can get locked up and i have to undo the movement that locked the arm to fix it, and my right shoulder has a point where it will physically jump a section in my muscles where its idk but i can't make a full rotation with it and when i hit that jump in my mobility its painful as hell, and because of the left shoulder being out of place its effecting my neck now and is pinching nerves on the top of my spine and because of the pinching in my spine the bottom of my spine is being pinched and my hips are being effected by the lower spine and making them have serious pressure all the time so i have to crack my back but by cracking my back its hurting my spine which made the middle of my spine extremely weak i can't lift a empty plate without feeling seriously crushing in the middle of my spine and it hurts so much, i am 17 years old this shouldn't be happening to me yet this is a cry for help doctors don't know what is wrong with me a chiropractor made everything worse and all i hear from everyone is we can't help you, someone who has any possible idea or know anyone who might please help me im in so much pain always

    Gym bros with better physique on their worst day than I will ever have on my best all tell me my forearms must be vertical for proper form. But I say this must be wrong because that position causes tears in my upper arms. So, who is right? Them or me?

    • @seanflanagan2300
      @seanflanagan2300 Рік тому

      I second this. I can’t squat elbows pointing down or else the bar will just slip off my back or feel unstable.

      Start doing back exercises. Lat pull down with a short handle med handle long handle. Do barbell rows, along with romanian deadlifts. You will be able to engage all the necessary muscles for an optimal low bar squat

    I know this is posted along time ago, but could this be the reason why at the bottom of my squad and I am former weightlifter so I go all the way ATG, but when I go 95% of 1rm I drop 1 hand and put it on my knee. Couldn’t be my bad position that is causing this?

    I'm having issues with fingernumbness in squatting specifically my median nerve any tips or ideas on why this may be happening? I don't want to give up squats but it's been an issue the last couple times.

    • @Duckeggmike
      @Duckeggmike 2 роки тому

      Could be just a mobility issue and maybe thats causing lack of bloodflow in a tight position? Ive gotten that too and find its usually when my wrists are getting tight around my elbows (tennis elbow would be the term). Shoulder mobility is also typically bad for me when that happens

    • @OOOOO0KKKKKKKK
      @OOOOO0KKKKKKKK 2 роки тому +1

      you need to take a day and figure out the bar position where this doesn't happen, it might be the pressure on your traps, it can also be a lack of mobility on your shoulder. You need to play with the bar position, also change the wideness of your grip and see how you feel, try everything, your body is unique you need to figure out what works for you.
