this guy just fixed squats for me and he's wearing jeans

Thank you for this. I've been trying to learn how to squat as a rest position. I can get into the position but I would lose balance and fall unless I had my heels up. I thought my issue was flexibility but your method just proved to me that isn't the case. Now i know i have to strengthen my core. Thank you!

I can’t believe I just did a real squat for the first time in my life!!! I always thought I couldn’t squat!

[johncasey]

I was literally led to believe by PTs that I didn't have the biomechanics to squat (long femur, poor ankle mobility). I haven't squatted in years and this guy literally fixed the issue in a minute. Unbelievable. Thank you.

Thank you so much, you helped a family member reach her fitness goals. She had such a hard time performing a proper squat. Now she has confidence and is on her way. Very good and serious content. Please keep it up it is appreciated.

It's 2am and I got off my bed and tried this method. I am happy and excited to report that it works. I did eight squats, all while smiling with my feet fully and firmly planted to the ground, like I've always wanted to experience. Thank you for sharing. ❤

This doesn't explain how I'm supposed to do it without the counter weight or what torso strength has to do with balance

[Rahul-kumar]

Simple and very informative, I struggle a lot while doing squats. I also sometimes use to try this but now I will do it on regular basis.
Thank you very much...

I've been failing to identify tightness causing my problem for years. I'm not right anywhere. I wondered why I can go all the way down just by holding onto a pole with just a finger, but when I let go, suddenly I can't move past your demonstration and barely being able to bend at all. I grabbed a water jug and held it out in front of me and boom butt to the ground. Crazy, it's been years that I've tried and failed to squat right. Thank you.

Thanks man! I am working out for last 7 years ! My PR in squat is 180 kg( not talking about those quarter squats😂) but this issue was always my problem. I am so thankful to you! People like you make YouTube useful.

[OSUHARDINGATECHNICEXPERIENCE]

This worked!!! Wow. Hopefully I get stronger and can eventually stop using the weight. Need to work on getting my back straight too.

[jakewindle]

I suffer from this problem and found this very useful, but are there any ways I can improve so that I can eventually do a barbell back squat? As I feel this will make me rely on a counter balance..

[ANUK]

Thank you. Been doing just that. Now I can do it properly.

[assault]

Holy shit it works, I’ve never seen a vid about fixing form that works 👍

[oldspiced]

that sounds like a great idea i will try this next time i go to gym.

[ManifestationsX]

I've shown so many people this video! Perfect advice

[erinwilliams]

I was having the opposite losing balance after coming up fully THIS WORKED!!😁 a treat 🙏

[justindilworth]

Thank you so much! I was thinking i needed to do some stretches in order to be able to do squats. I'm glad I found your video!!!

[rickt]

Thank you sir it  immidiatly worked i did it with a book and i am already seeing progression

[DailyPunkinPops]

Thank you so much! I have the flexibility to hold a deep squat but only if I am holding on to something. If I try it free hand I feel like I am going to fall. This counterbalance technique is genius!!! Thank you!!
