This was the video that really got me serious about squats a few years back. From 315 to 515 two weeks ago 🛠
How many reps tho? 💪🏾
How long ago did this video come out?
@@JuRDega 1RM lol. Been slowly breaking the mental barrier of having that much weight on my back
@@garsleezy If I remember right it was in mid 2019.. He removed the older one now tho
A Yo! Fam this was the video for me as well AND I was coming off a nasty knee injury a few years prior!
Watched this before bed, killed it this morning. Even hit a new PR. 💪🏾🙏🏾
Love it ! Same message for over 10 years
In the gym right just finished my shoulder n traps workout, but I tuned to Mike and now I have to bang out some squats. Thanks big Dawg!
I avoided squats for years because of many erroneous myths. Now I love squatting. So many benefits.
Wats the benefit
@@AccentBwoy Well for one, there is a huge hormone response. It naturally raises testosterone and growth hormone. There’s lots of carryover to the upper body. I’ve found my general upper body strength go up by building out my legs. Being that squatting is a natural movement, functionally you are reducing the risk of injury on your lower body, assuming you are using a weight that you can handle. Increased hip and ankle mobility. Improved core strength. Lastly, you want your body to be balanced. Strong upper body muscles combined with weak legs can create uneven forces on your joints and potentially contribute to postural issues.
10:38 Totally agree with this!
I rested for a week while on vacation and getting back to doing legs was a huge struggle.
I been looking at Mike for years. True 🐐 💪🏾💪🏾
Wasn’t a big fan of squats. Now it seems I’m forced to face it!!!
That’s how it go… look like it’s time for us to get on these squats Big Mike been telling us since Iron Wars 1… since 2013 easy, since Ambrosia first dropped and today is the day we finally listen 🎉 bout damn time
#FWeenieFalacies
💪🏾💪🏾
I hear you! Squats are so necessary that I have to force myself to squat 2-3 times a week
Barbell squats are a personal battle. It’s you against your mind. Like he said do one rep at a time and keep ribs down meaning brace the core like your doing a crunch and enjoy the process.
Makes 2 of us gonna start the grind Monday
I needed to learn the proper way to do squats… thank you‼️🙏🏽
Im getting older and the side effects from squats the days after isn't worth it. Your legs will thank you by over loading with split squats, leg press and overloading on leg extentions.
A lot of people ego lift on the squats.
I don't squat for the same reason, but each to their own.
Excuses are like a asshole. Everyone has one. Squatting is crucial for one's overall strength and muscle growth. U tripping dog.
Thank you for your perspective. I’m going to employ those.
I appreciate it bro my fat ass finally took this shit serious
I got you!
It’s dope to show the mess up and how you feel on workout days thank you for this
Inspirational stuff right here 🔥
When round 2 came
.man went under the bar with purpose.
Back to basics, lifts and Amir Perry's music. You can't get any better.
I would love to see the two of you come to gym’s across California and give seminars.
Bless🙏🏾💪🏾
good vid wit valuable info, and dope shades Mike.
SQUAT VIBE! 🏋🏾♀️🏋🏾♀️🏋🏾♀️
Love them low bar and high
Hate squats, much rather deadlift but yeah I need to do them shits smh 😢
Mr. Rashid, please put your soundtrack artists in the DAMN info! The music was BANGIN'! Good squat video.
If you do leg day right, you felt like you have accomplished something for that week.
Squats became my favorite workout even over bench press with the correct weight and reps its a dynamic cardio excercise
Bounced right back with it round 2
It's My favorite movement after bent over rows..
Thank you
I got you!
Grate work that what up ❤
I did a hundred squats (no weights) just out of nowhere today and I’m just now seeing this..
My dawg 🔥💯🙌🏽
Needed this video, got the rack in the garage
Hyperbolic time chamber shit 🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿.I used to detest back squats,but after watching many of these typa vids by mike,my love for em grew.Keep up the good work Mike👊🏿
I have very bad knees. Done with squats. I do leg press, leg extensions, and plyometrics.
I dont fool with squats either. Maybe body weight or dumbell but that's occasionally. I'm 44 and never had surgeries. I've been lifting since the 90s.
I feel you ain’t gotta do squats but if your body and mobility can then do so! I still squat but I rely more on machines due to safety reason and easy on my knees as I like to go heavy!
SQUATS ARE SO IMPORTANT FOR MEN! TESTOSTERONE BOOST!!!!! 🔥
I always do Romanian deadlifts after squats from a low rack position or off blocks. I see no reason to do RDLs off the floor. So I would have to do those everyday too.
Mike looking natty (trt) and healthy! Great to see.
Big Facts bro 💯
Love the squats content 👊🏽👊🏽
Burton Strong (TEXAS)

Big Homie 💪

EASY MONEY BABY 💪🏾💪🏾
Respect Vlog Gym Mike
I'm old school....I trip out at some other dudes on youtube who say "you don't need squats....do these instead" .....squats are fundamental, compound exercises....nothing compares to them.
Facts
I agree
Knees over toes guy,my man.
That is real I mean u gotta keep the foundation solid.
Gotta try this
I work out topless and sunglasses 😎 as well 😂😂😂😂
SQUATA ARE THE BEST EXERCISE 💯 THEN POWER CLEANS 💯… BUT THAT INSTRUMENTAL WENT CRAZY 🔥💯 WHEN YOU GUYS WERE LIFTING
Man I gotta get back in the gym
Enjoyed this video.. ill be making great videos like this one day 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I have Chondromalacia in my left knee. Doing squats are a no go for me which annoys the hell out of me because I love squats.
Don't know if you can because of your knee but if so continue to squat by doing just body weight no weight no bar.
no goofies
no weenies
big W
It’s the wrist for me, when you have more weight on the bar how do you adjust your wrists in order to make sure the weight isn’t sitting on them, if you don’t have giant shoulders
Hey Mike what king of sunglasses is that bro?
SQUAT!!!!
Mike u made that shit look easy 💪🏿
That’s what I do baby
I so determined to doing real squats that I squatted 315 9 times with runners knee (patellofemoral syndrome). To be honest, I probably could done the same with 405, if fully healthy .
I messed up looking at the mirror of the people behind me instead of focusing on the lift
Put me in the game coach 😤
I like the squat everyday program
Squat hs my favorite 😍
Squated 145 for the first time on the smith machine PR , Im gunning for 175 lbs
You can get it…
I’m sorry but where you get theses beats from . I can bump this in the gym and well as some of the other beats you used before in videos
Amir Perry
Squats are difficult that’s why I like doing them 😂🤷🏾♂️
Is it bad to lock the knees?
I was informed by my doctor that I have a small amount of arthritis in my knee. The pain comes and goes. What leg exercises do you suggest I can do? Thanks in advance.
whats the best way to get ripped for the summer months?
@@Unc_arc yeah I train all year round mate. And I still have to eat a lot in summer because we have to be tough and still gain muscle plus other people who don’t even use the gym act like cunts so we still have to dominate them
@@Unc_arc how many times a week sessions and what training components?
Are all squats the same? Can you use dumbbells or a smith machine and get the same benefits?
As humans, we are meant to squat, we all did it when we were babies/toddlers. We partially squat to use the toilet. It. is best start off to master the air squat/body squat, . There are barbell front squat, barbell back squat and a much more advance overhead squat.
Yes you can do dumbbell squats:)
We've squatting for thousands and thousands of years. Why stop now? Why not incorporate it into our workouts?
Yass
Question BIG MIKE WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE WORK OUT FAR AS IN LIFTING
🔥🔥🔥
I have one leg so I do leg press
In the uk we have custard called ambrosia
Women do their dirt in silence, we as men should also practice silence!
I didn't know it is ok to squat everyday ❤❤
I disagree with the bar placement. It shouldn't rest on the traps. Especially for skinny dudes.
Thanks for the knowledge brother.. I been going hard for 7 months twice a day you think I'm over doing it?? I feel great but I'm new to this lifestyle just trying to get it right
Do you need a belt?
And babies pick up items with perfect form. I still do squats but body weight only
You can’t do leg day with no squats or it doesn’t count !
Re upload.
💯🔥💪🏾
I need this right now!!! S’go!!!!
This is a old video
I see a lot of people lift in converse.
Vans or Dunk too
Especially me. I love lifting with Chucky's.
Does hand placement matter? What area of your feet should you push from?
I stand at a neutral stance… Feet slightly wider than hips, toes forward. Hands, you put wherever is comfortable
The more narrow your hands, the more of a shelf you’ll have on your back for the bar.
And that guy just died from the weight snappin his neck.. phew
Ya boy keep putting on the weights backwards
@Mike Rashid does Hack squat machine pass for the exercise (squats)?
No
You’re suppose to breathe out when coming up right?

Mike, is it still good to squat after you have knee replacement surgery?
Nobody is gonna pull 400pound out your what you here for dawg you can grab that bar like nothing if you can't hold 405 you are not that solid...
