I didn't notice anything special about her squatting so I just assumed it was a normal back squat.

[prestonshirley]

Cool. I was born in Paul Anderson's hometown of Toccoa, GA.

Where's the original video? I need it for...educational...form purposes

[jakedragon]

Very short video of her to tell but, yes Paul Anderson was an amazing lifter, and yes Anderson squats/ Pin squats/ Bottom-up squats are great cuz if done right they make the muscles contract harder with less weight cuz they are used to being already "loaded up" in that bottom position, best to relax each time at the bottom so doesn't turn into a normal squat

[adamkoehler]

I never knew why it works but I would just tell people to do box squats to get better at getting out of the hole. Nice to know I wasn’t lying to them

[zachkieri]

Just recommended a friend start doing these: the algorithm knows

[_pvn]

Bro, I ain't even see the bars on the first take, LOL. I was focused elsewhere

[zachariahtaylor]

I just realized…Dude, you can front squat barefoot???
I’ve only used a lift in shoe or plate when front squatting.

[thegram]

Hey. I get lower back pain when squatting. I think about getting a wedge under my heels. Do you think this will help???

[weebrahim]

Pretty sure that's just called a squat dude...out here with this fancy bullsh*t

[inksword]

She is not doing them properly tho. She is not exploding up on the concentric and she is going slow on the eccentric, totally the opposite of what an Anderson squat should look like

[MrWazzasupgee]

I love how most physios look like this guy and can only squat like 2 plates
