“You can be fat, and still strong” - David Tate Personal feedback: This is spot on. I hope it encourages anyone that comes across this video. There’s nothing like getting over our own limitations; if body issue is one, this will motivate you in realizing otherwise. I’ve also recently (after an extended break) incorporated HLR and it’s working. The marshmallow is turning into a rock, even if my body fat isn’t quite there. Godspeed to you all. Con Paz
This man is a legend...I don't know how you're gonna fit the technique part of the squat down to one video...He's got a whole series on how to improve your squat technique! I think it's 5 or 6 videos
Never ignore training your core. When I started training I did next to no core work. I did it but I had no idea how to properly do it. Now I train core almost everyday in continuous time intervals varying between several different exercises (scissors, flutter kicks, hanging leg raises, rocky reverse crunches, crunch and twist, russian v tucks, elbow to knee tucks, jackknifes, etc.) I also throw in some weighted ab work. As soon as I started gaining core strength, my squats started going up quickly. I can now do working sets above my body weight. This only took a couple of months.
I just love that we are getting this information for free! A full breakdown of the movement in one video, and how to increase it in another? That's just amazing.
John u deserve to be the number one bodybuilding channel. I’ve been with u since u had 30k subs and deserve all your success and then some , getting close to that 500k sub mark
YESSSS!!! I have been waiting for this since you announced this series. I'm with Dave, squat > bench > deadlift! Have never thought of hanging leg raises as being instrumental in squatting, definitely going to include this now. Can't wait for technique vid. Thanks for the content.
Too much, too soon springs to mind. How can you train properly if your legs are destroyed for five days? You'd be better off doing a few sets each time to get volume over a week, rather than all in one day. Killing yourself on one day won't achieve anything.
I personally keep a full ATG paused front squat/and or gobblet squat done a moderate weight to form failure...a few sets weekly solely for mobility maintainence purposes.
A couple months ago I had to do somthin at work that was pretty much a hanging leg raise a few times to get on top of this thing, 2 days later my entire abs were sore so I started doing them on purpose, was cool to see dave solidify that decision
Recently started warming up with the hanging leg raise. Bought a GHR machine and am doing them now twice a week. Will be starting SBB good mornings on my next ME day. Love these vids. Thank you Dave.
best strength and bodybuilding channel on the whole internet/youtube PERIOD! Pleas John make two exercise index videos about the romanian and stiff leg deadlift with barbells and dumbbells because you don´t have one! Dave is wrong here!!! PLEASE make these videos how to properly execute both lifts and whats the difference etc. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHARING SO MUCH VALUABLE CONTENT! All the best and stay healthy with your heart!
Ol boy is doing his best to keep it as basic as possible yet I guarantee he's still going over most people's heads. My motto is first listen, then implement, last improve. So basically even if I don't completely understand I'm going to start following directive to the best of my ability. After putting the routines into my workout I begin to understand what the individual is trying to convey much better. Lastly once I have a comprehensive understanding it's time to take all the principles and apply them to the maxxxxxxxx 😄👍👍👍
get a thick band and start doing a lot of front and back squats etc. its a diff kind of tension and im really pleased with the growth im seeing even after decades of heavy leg days in the gym. Adaptation response ftw.
you continue to share your knowledge and resources with the world,its so obvious the love that is put into your work thank you john and thank you dave so greatful....B.T
I love the ending remark. "How to improve? Do the exercise properly, and that's why we'll talk technique tomorrow!" Kinda reminds me of Mark Rippetoe: "How to improve your squat? You squat!" It's true, though. People want some kinda solution to their problem, not realizing their problem is their solution. They just don't know how. That's why in depth technique instructions from seasoned vets are so important. Looking forward to see the video on squat technique!
Thank you for the video gentleman, my squat has always been my weakest major lift, been lifting for 4 years now and my 1RM is 225. Gonna implement these exercises into my program, trying to get to 300
Hi John, Absolutely awesome video with Dave Tait! I loved the 5 exercises Dave pointed as I've done 3 of those pre-corona lockdown. I really loved Dave's explanations! Thank you for making the video and I'm really excited to watching Dave go into the technical side of the squat. Cheers, Billy
John I am thankful you keep your channel free from cursing. While I respect every man's right to speak however he chooses, for me personally, getting great content without the curse words is important. It has become very difficult to find those two together anywhere. I admire your standards and this channel helps me. Thank you.
Agreed pauses front squats are some of the hardest things I’ve done in the gym. Full Front rack, 225 for 5 second pauses in the bottom for 5-8 reps. Lungs burning, hammies dead, quads on fire... and a day later your abs feel like you went 10 rounds with rocky. The problem comes down to a lot of people’s upper back is so tight they can’t get into a front rack position, like you just caught a clean. Most people think it’s tight shoulders lack of wrist flexibility when I’m fact it’s tight lats and people don’t know how to keep the upper body tight, and get there elbows Up or can’t because their lats are just to tight.
My problem isn't tight lats or lack of flexibility. It is just that I fatigue in the upper back (Chest-back) way before anything else if doing higher reps than 5 with the result that I lean more and more forward and loose the proper form. I just can't imagine doing the 10-15 reps he suggested. Although I go to the bottom and with a slight pause there( and with a relaxed clean grip, no crossed arms). I feel like that the front Squat isn't something that you are supposed to do high reps with if you compare it to, say, normal squats.
Yes M Dog more invaluable information from Dave Tate for a better squat can't wait for tomorrow's video on the technical aspects for stronger squat please keep this excellent content coming much love respect and appreciation!!!!👌😎💯
i’ve never watched a video of yours, but i’m glad this popped up. i feel like i learned a lot and i’m going to implement some of this. will for sure check your other videos out
John and Dave, When you mentioned Different stances and squatting, I got to thinking about what both of you think about parallel squats vs "ass to grass" style squats. I am more comfortable with the "ass to grass" style as it seems to take the load off my knees and puts it directly onto the glutes and quads. Man, I'm learning so much lately from you and Dave I can't keep up!
Mr.Dude Sir, I love the thoughts of end game . What are your thoughts if I have a hip issue , arthritis? Please comment , I know there are a lot of others like myself.
Zercher squats are a fantastic alternative to front squats for the mobility impaired the only problem is holding the bar but it feels so damn good to do it once it’s done
my body mechanics/ bio mechanics just dosent work for squats so its never been my best exercise but deadlifts on the other hand is my thing its funny how for most people its either one or the other ....... i love the stuff you guys did together even the motant on a mission stuff was great
Make sure you check out the whole playlist with Dave Tate: ua-cam.com/play/PLNAUreWTt_SghWOesxKjv5EWY33p1qNr0.html
Hey John & Dave, what are your thoughts on barbell hip thrusts to help squats?

Respect the front squat
Miss you, John. Your legacy lives on in all the people who continue to learn from your teachings
Hanging leg raises (and just hanging itself), has done wonders for my lumber spine issues.
Rest in peace you legend. Thank you for everything
John, when i reach my body fat goal and appearance, i hope one day i can meet you and personally thank you for getting me in shape and change my life.
i hope so!

Two of my favorite guys talking about my favorite lift and how to make it better ,,, Yahoo !!

This series is one of the best I've ever seen from you John. Thank you!
Glad you enjoy it!
Agreed, this was fantastic!
Keep it up with this series it’s awesome John
Don't forget to thank Dave too
This new series is some of the best content on what is already one of my favorite channels. You’re outdoing yourself here.
John u deserve to be the number one bodybuilding channel. I’ve been with u since u had 30k subs and deserve all your success and then some , getting close to that 500k sub mark
Working on it!!!!
YESSSS!!! I have been waiting for this since you announced this series. I'm with Dave, squat > bench > deadlift! Have never thought of hanging leg raises as being instrumental in squatting, definitely going to include this now. Can't wait for technique vid. Thanks for the content.
I'd put deadlift first personally
Fax squat>bench>deadlift
Deadlift > squat + bench
Man Rest In Peace the GOAT. What an incredibly humble man.
My legs are still sore 5 days after my first leg session back in the gym. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t train for 3 months haha
Happened to me also. Call it DOMS
Honestly quads and hams didn't give me much trouble... the calf DOMS though was brutal
While gyms were closed I did a lunging mile twice a month. Freaking brutal. Takes a good 7days to heal up.
Take your time, you're detrained. Slowly build back to your own volume.
Too much, too soon springs to mind. How can you train properly if your legs are destroyed for five days? You'd be better off doing a few sets each time to get volume over a week, rather than all in one day. Killing yourself on one day won't achieve anything.

Very interested that he included and started topic with hanging leg raises
This sh*t is absolute gold! I am so thankful for this content and it's free. Amazing John! Thank you.
I would never have thought about the hanging leg raises to improve squat. Definitely going to include them now.
I don't see why not. They work your hips and legs.

Crazy. Wouldn’t have even thought of a hanging leg raise. Thanks for the great information like always!
Gym doesn’t even reopen for another couple weeks, why do I torture myself watching this series?
Lol I’m in NY and they don’t even have date yet that I’m aware of.
If it makes you feel better here in Cali they’re open already but they might shutdown again
Bodybuilding Trey damn really?
Irish Curse yes man, lot of things are shutting down so gyms might be next
get a thick band and start doing a lot of front and back squats etc. its a diff kind of tension and im really pleased with the growth im seeing even after decades of heavy leg days in the gym. Adaptation response ftw.
Man the only downside to these videos is that I have to wait day by day for it to come out. Fantastic John and Dave
You deserve a million subscribers.
you continue to share your knowledge and resources with the world,its so obvious the love that is put into your work thank you john and thank you dave so greatful....B.T

Informational video. I probably find it most beneficial when you talked of good mornings and different stance squats and variations
Thank you for the video gentleman, my squat has always been my weakest major lift, been lifting for 4 years now and my 1RM is 225. Gonna implement these exercises into my program, trying to get to 300
John, these are golden man! Thanks a lot for bringing Dave and having these in depth videos. Easily easily stand out and offer so much value.
Glad you like them!
Can't wait to go back to the gym and try these out! Thanks Mr. Tate

This series is gold
Hanging leg raises
Hamstring compound movements
Good mornings
Front squat
Squat stances
Amazing series
The marshmallow analogy is brilliant, really put core work into perspective for me with the squat.

LOL
Lmao
Visiting family in Ohio, late July through early August. Going to get a workout in at American Barbell. Hope to meet you brother! 👊🏻
Sounds great!
Great information, gonna add these to my routine, thanks!
That SS Yoke Bar good morning is a killer.
Zercher squats are a fantastic alternative to front squats for the mobility impaired the only problem is holding the bar but it feels so damn good to do it once it’s done
Thanks John for the info and the enlightenment ✊
Loving this series. Thanks guys.
Our pleasure!
These guys got this shit down to a science jow , great video guys👍
I like this guy , very informative
Thanks for watching
Hey John & Dave, what are your opinions on barbell hip thrusts to help squats?
stronger glutes always help squats
great team 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome and honest dude!
I appreciate that!
Seeing such logic and reason on UA-cam with no underlying agenda other than moving weight is rare. Awesome video!
"Nobody can load shit up for 15 reps, unless they're..." *Westside Barbell Flashbacks* "nobody can..."
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
You are so welcome!
Front squatting blew up my LB back squat!
The best fitness channel...
Thank you for this video its very helpfull
Glad it was helpful!
3:00 damn those abbs
Great Video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Dave Tate is awesome!
100%
During that 3 months my squat dropped from 365 to barely 225, its back up to 265 and my deadlift dropped from 505 to 345 and its back up to 385
I don’t know why Dave is so good at this but I feel like I double my knowledge every single time I see him speak on this stuff 😂
I used to love to hate squats.. Grueling but necessary!
U mentioned the front squat harness, do u recommend it? I’m considering getting one, or a safety squat bar. Not sure which to get?
i like spider bar personally
Thanks. Never used one but it is interesting and on special in the uk at the minute, will look into it more.
What about bar placement, like using high-bar squats to compliment low-bar squats?
my body mechanics/ bio mechanics just dosent work for squats so its never been my best exercise but deadlifts on the other hand is my thing its funny how for most people its either one or the other ....... i love the stuff you guys did together even the motant on a mission stuff was great
