Don't worry, it will still be here for eternity. You could show your kids (assuming you have any) how cool you were when you were younger.

It's GREAT!

You did?

What was that page you're talking about?

By the way - do you feel like when you fail a rep it's because of the quads giving out or the glutes giving out?

Definitely. It wasn't a hate message by the way... it's just the way I see it. I've had moments where parallax makes it look like you're head on rim when in reality you're like 6 inches away or so. The difference in between angles is HUGE.

Anyway, keep up the good work, you're my favorite guy in terms of training on this forum for some weird reason.

Damn I really need to take out those pictures in the bathroom...

I think you were more than 1 inch away. Probably 3 or 4. 1 inch is EXTREMELY close.

Yeah that's what I meant - what shitty movement patterns do you risk to develop. I have NEVER seen this discussed.

It's interesting but from a specificity for the one leg jump perspective, I plant the foot of the jumping leg in a externally rotated foot anyway so it would actually be MORE specific squatting this way. Obviously the body is differently arranged in a one leg jump than in a squat so ... my comparison is kinda silly.

The problem is that I don't know where I'm lacking in terms of mobility (that is - what is causing the "duck footed" stance - probably hip flexibility?)

I guess doing that sanfranciscocrossfit squat stretch before every squat workout is a good idea, and I'm doing that already.

I don't understand.

I can sink into my hips better when I externally rotate my feet (say 30 to 45 degrees) and I'm definitely more stable in that position (since I don't feel like falling backwards).

I want to know what the difference in muscle recruitment is, if any.

By the way - I used to squat with the feet kinda rotated a lot externally. You know, penguin squats... what would that do? I tried to figure out what is the difference between a front-oriented foot to a externally rotated foot (say 45 degrees) - that, again, could allow me to get deeper - and couldn't figure out.

I mean shouldn't the recruitment be the same? Even if you exaggerate it to prove a point (say you rotate the feet to almost having them pointing to the sides), what would be the difference in recruitment vs a front-pointed feet situation?

I haven't seen any article whatsoever about this. They all say it's "wrong" but nobody says why.

narrow LBBS is the most "natural" squat for me.

I always feel like falling back if I'm not widening my stance or wearing OLS.

Well I'm currently doing medium stance high bar squats (like you see in that video I posted) and once I stall I'll get back to low bar squats and see where it got me, if they increased. And basically rotate around the low bar and the high bar squat, trying to get benefits from both styles. I THINK.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or if I should just be choosing one style and stick with that.
