Check out “Allen Thrall” he’s more entraining to watch and gets into the science of it to a degree where you fully understand how to powerlift without all this computer gizmo shit., this guy that makes these videos is a zeek.
HI Jeremy i have just graduated as an exercise physiologist is Australia and these videos are fantastic to be able to show to my clients especially as they are in the clinical population where proper technique is imperative. I particularly like the evidence based nature of your explanations. You have just gained one very loyal Aussie health professional. well done mate keep it up!
I recently got back to the gym after a long layoff. I ended up doing a ton of Air squats using a TRX band for balance. My legs were on fire the next day. I probably won’t use weights until I know my form is on point.
Thanks for the really high quality content. I don’t typically leave comments on UA-cam, but I wanted to take the time to tell you how much I appreciate the videos you make. The first video of yours came up when I asked “how to do squats with proper form” and I appreciated it so much that now I search your channel before every workout to make sure I get the form right. I’ve probably watched 20 or more videos of yours. The things I like about the channel are: - the science studies you reference so that I know is it’s been done before - visual overlays of the bone muscle and joint anatomy so that I understand what’s happening to my body - green and red arrows what to do an not do so that I can focus on the proper form - slow cadence of your speech so that the content is calm and trusted - no fluff/hype or meaningless content so that my time is not wasted - the videos are relevant, for example this one about ankle mobility and knee health, so that I keep coming back Thanks again for a great channel!
what a boss. he does a messed up version of the exercise risking injury to himself in the video (even though it's probably light weight for him) just to show how it's not supposed to be done, haha! Thanks for all the information man, people love and appreciate you and your videos.
Damn you and I are on the same wavelength! You always upload exactly the thing I’m looking for. I’ve got the most trust in your videos out of all the fitness channels. Thanks for your hard work!
As beautifully, systematically and scientifically explained as Jeremy always does. Mr. Ethier certainly makes the lives of guys interested in strength training a lot easier. "Keep up the good work Jeremy"
What a fantastic video, Jeremy Ethier. I really appreciate your instruction in all your videos ... very complete, very direct, packed-full of information in an easily-understood way, with great visuals. Amazing! Thank you.
Thank you! I'm on a weight loss journey, being heavier than I use to be, squats have been messing w my knees...I copied everything you instructed to do and notice a big difference ! Knees feel better and I can now feel the workout instead of the knee pain.. gracias !♡
This brought instant relief to my knees when doing squats. Thank you sir! I just started working out and was wondering why squats hurt my kneecaps so much. What a great video.
@@smashb3766 If I remember correctly, I was doing mistake #3 in this video. I was a complete beginner so I had no idea what I was doing wrong. Haven't had any issues since!
Appreciate your graphics/edits and everything to make us understand better. New beginner here. Thank you so much. Best channel I’ve found that explains everything with directions/graphics/techniques etc etc. thanks so much
A simple one I do it alternate between Push Ups and then Laying Pull Ups using a bar like you're going to be bench pressing. Its the same pushup form just a pulling movement back up into that position. It really works the upper body and core. Doing about 10reps at 5 sets.
When I do to many leg excercises, my leg started to hurt alot, my legs hurt when i do squats, its been 2 days, but this dude saved my leg, thanks bro i will subscribe
This video is so high quality, as someone who doesn't work out a ton the muscle diagrams really helped me visualize what I should be doing. It turns out my problem was mainly with my hip flexor, but I truly would have never figured that out if the visual wasn't included - I had no idea what a hip flexor was let alone how to engage it.
I'm on ankle mobility exercises ASAP. That test had my heel come off oh so slightly but no matter. I'm getting it fixed. Stay blessed Jeremy and thank you for this video 🙏
Your “DON’T” demos scare the heck out of me sometimes. Especially the knees in part. Thanks for the demo but please use a empty bar next time. Like watching someone dodge a car. Whew!
@@DefeatLust NO PAIN NO GAIN!!!!ARGHHH!!!!! But no I agree with you.Doesnt matter if 10 plates each side is Jeremy's version of light weight having no plates definitely helps and reduces risk of injury when showing us what not to do
Hey Jeremy, Another informative video. Like the fact you slow your pace down for instructions, and don't rush through your explanation. I'm one of your new fans !
Thank you so much! I have some pain above the knees, not too bad but still a sign that something is not right. Watching this I think I do mistakes number 2 & 4, and now will try to fix both. Thank you again.
Same here have been working out for almost a decade now but years of squats had sure affected my knee if you face the same problem try this it really worked out for mewww.houseofcoonoor.com/products/%E2%84%A2
Is it normal for the bone structure of my knee to be inwards? My knees don’t cave, but when I straighten my leg the knee is tilted out wards like 2 parallel lines, and then my lower leg is straight agin
@pingufromindia Your right dude, a lesson to never comment while drinking, I think I just thought hey I'm having knee trouble deadlifting can the hex bar help
I know that you demonstrated those incorrect reps on purpose, but I was cringing each time thinking you were going to hurt yourself!!! Don’t demonstrate under load!!!! Thank you for all of your videos.
Thank you so much Jeremy! I was wondering why I was unable to squat unless in an extremely wide stance. I now realize it’s poor ankle mobility. I’m going to work on fixing it!
Thanks mate! You are one of the best dudes making these guides and explaining everything and showing how to do it right! Helps me to be more confident in the gym with what am i doing and not letting hurting myself! Have a good one!
There's plenty of squat vidoes - this is the Gold Standard. Lots' of useful practical advice. And you squat beautifully - when i squat i imagine I'm Jeremy Ethier.
I've been strugling with knee pain for 8 years since I had an injurie at work. And it prevented me from getting any gains in my legs. Now i'm on a treatment with food suplements that helped me a bit, but I tried to squat a bit after I viewed your video, and there's absolutely no pain in my knee and I can really feel the muscles working. Thank you very much!
Man, I've been lifting for years and although I dont have knee pain with squatting, these tips helped me so much with my squats today I felt way more balanced and was able to go deeper much more comfortably.
I’ve been struggling with what my friends call the bambee effect from too much weight. Adding in the band exercise right away to fix that. Great video and I appreciate the content!
Jeremy you are the best brother thx for all this time you take to make this videos to help us prevent injuries we viewers don’t say it as much as we should but thank you brother.

Watch Athlean X’s “Do this everytime you squat”. He has a great exercise for the medial glutes.

"Too much, too often". That is exactly what is hurting my knees. Thanks for the great video.
I just want to thank you for making the most no-nonsense videos, not too much talking, and always under 10 minutes. ❤
Pointing my toes out is one thing I noticed I have to do. I thought I was doing it incorrectly, you proved me it’s helpful thanks for the vid
Jeremy, I subscribe to a lot of UA-camrs, but yours is the only channel I have notifications turned on for. Thank you.
Wow did I need this video. I have knee pain the day after squats
Looks like it may be my ankle flexibility
Less wieght and don't go deep 90degrees...just go 70degrees a cheat squat.
Great, comprehensive, informative video as always, Jeremy! Thank you!

I followed these tips today at the gym. Focusing on the hip flexors on the way down made all the difference in the world. Thanks Jeremy!

The muscle visualisation on the right side of the video is a very good addition! Please do these in your future videos as well, thank you!

I LOVE this video. I’ve always had issues with proper form with squats so this explains my heel being the culprit.
Your “DON’T” demos scare the heck out of me sometimes. Especially the knees in part. Thanks for the demo but please use a empty bar next time. Like watching someone dodge a car. Whew!
I thought that too but then realized that an empty bar for us is what a bar with 2 plates is to him 🤷♂️
You
Or even like watching someone buy a Dodge car.
@Ze TheGame that's... not the point. Adding even 5lbs to the bar is more dangerous than no weight when showing an incorrect movement.

man you have such a great body, you're one of the few fitness youtubers i can say i trust regarding this type of videous

Very informative. Thank you!
Bro! You are one of my favorite fitness guides! I also love your taste. Im in love with these shoes!!! Give a link or something 🙏🏼
Oh my GOD! you are a life saver!!! I actively engaged my hip flexors and there was no pain. its just gone! thank you so much.
Just watched the video..Thank you for making this video simple and easy to know .. Shashank Gujar 🇮🇳
Visualizing the hip flexors was such a great tip and helped me improve my squat tremendously. Thanks Jeremy!
Hi Jeremy,
A video on whether leg extensions are good or bad would be great. It's such a heated debate and I don't know who to believe.
Thank you so much! I have some pain above the knees, not too bad but still a sign that something is not right. Watching this I think I do mistakes number 2 & 4, and now will try to fix both. Thank you again.
Great video, I recently injured the area above my right knee while doing squats.
Same here took a whole week to recover
The weight shift was my mistake, thanks for help❤
Jeremy can you do a video on the difference between flyes and presses
Hatred Pkerz presses are usually for strength, flies are usually for size
Great video thank you so much. I always have knee pain and it sucks.
Same here have been working out for almost a decade now but years of squats had sure affected my knee if you face the same problem try this it really worked out for mewww.houseofcoonoor.com/products/%E2%84%A2
2:20 that test depends on height though, right? The shorter your shins are, the more you have to bend your ankle to reach the wall
I am a shorty, i do not have ankle mobility issue but i just can't do that. Can someone help explain?🙏
I've been needing this one for a while! Your videos are always great, much appreciated.
Sir Jer., thou shall save my kneecaps from my own undoing
lol
Thanks very much. I realized today when I did my squat routine that I'd been committing the mistake you mentioned on shifting the weight to my toes.
Is it normal for the bone structure of my knee to be inwards? My knees don’t cave, but when I straighten my leg the knee is tilted out wards like 2 parallel lines, and then my lower leg is straight agin
Hi Jeremy thank you for your time and help great video
Video tip:
How effective are Super Sets?
ankle mobility! thank you. your channel is so friggen helpful
My personal squat mantra is: Look up, back straight, butt out, focus the weight (mostly) in the heels.
You post the best exercises at the right time
Hey, my problem when squatting is I use my wrists. Any tips on how to hold the bar so that I dont use my wrists?
I'd say, point your elbows backwards a bit, and have a closer grip (just outside shoulder width)
@@jjwp-ql5rv You want your elbows under the bar when squatting not pointed backwards
Take your thumb from under the bar and put it on the top. This will automatically teach you how not to use arms.
I was looking for a video like this. And the best of them all released it !! Thank you
Is there any problems in using the hex bar for squats, do I still need correct squat form to avoid knee injuries or are dey minimised on the hex bar
@pingufromindia Your right dude, a lesson to never comment while drinking, I think I just thought hey I'm having knee trouble deadlifting can the hex bar help
@pingufromindia thanks will try to do that
This was So awesome & helpful as I do alot of squats. You always talk slowly & smoothly to easily follow your instructions. Thank you so much
I know that you demonstrated those incorrect reps on purpose, but I was cringing each time thinking you were going to hurt yourself!!!
Don’t demonstrate under load!!!!
Thank you for all of your videos.
Great video! These movements made all the difference!
Man, how come U missed out on telling how wide the legs should be when squatting ?
Fax. Imma guess shoulder width
This and the Lower Workout pdf have been a great help. Thanks!
