awesome Omar, the video was a lot of fun to do
@Alastair MacNicol Next stop, calf raises.
@Alastair MacNicol WHAT REAR DELTS
@Alastair MacNicol also I chuckled to myself about mistake #1 being turning the squat into a good morning
@Alastair MacNicol Awesome presentation skills, Alastair. Would love to see you coach the Deadlift, I think they way you perform your deads are one of the cleanest I’ve ever seen. I’d also like to see your take on comparing the Olympic style/High-bar/Low-bar Squat in the same video (similar to Candito’s vid).
This is simply the best tutorial on the low bar squat on the interwebs. Thanks for making the video.
Beautiful low bar squats
Dude is like a robot! I wish I was that consistent with my setup. Must. practise. more.
Practice is essentially HOW you get better doing the exact same set up.
Dat Shelf.
Dat picture.
Good one. Jeremy is pumpin a little to look good. 😉
Shout outs to the Beatles in the background.
Awesome ear, those Liverpool lads know what’s up.
I noticed that too, love the Beatles 🙂

His instructions are a little different from Mark Rippetoe of Starting Strength. He said that elbow has to be pushed forward while Mark Rippetoe said that it has to be pushed back so that there can be a better shelf for the bar. When he demonstrates the squat, he actually pushes back his elbows like Mark says.
The second difference I see is the foot position. I love the cue to avoid good mornings.
The only thing he skipped over was hip drahhve.
This hip drahv thing turned my squat into a good morning. At lighter weights they’re no problem but once the weight starts getting challenging, I always find the hip drive cue to cause my shoulders to not rise up. So I watched Candito’s video and focused on keeping my chest up along with driving my hips up and it helped a lot.
Sandarpan I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing this
I was having the same issue. The queue that works for me is to keep my knees forward and locked until the final third of the ascend. A good morning is basically knees extending with zero bar displacement. Another queue is maintaining a strong torso, hip-torso connection. I think about very strictly moving my torso up with the hips. Chest up queue definitely turns it into a good morning for me. Long femurs brah.
It’s better to keep the chest upp
