The Squat w/Dr. Aaron Horschig of Squat University

This week on the USA Weightlifting Podcast, we’re excited to talk about this magical movement known as THE SQUAT! When it comes down to it, many athletes don’t realize the aspects of the squat that need to be paid attention to, developed, and perfected for best carryover into their snatch and clean and jerk. Dr. Aaron Horschig, from Squat University will be joining us today to help fill you in. Aaron is a doctor in Physical Therapy, as well as author of The Squat Bible and 6th-place finisher in the 2011 Senior Nationals. In this episode we’ll be confirming squat depth, foot positioning, low-bar back squats, and everything else you need to know from the squat master himself. This episode is loaded with tips to help you both improve your strength as well as proper form in the squat. If you loved this episode please be sure to leave us a review! Happy lifting and enjoy the show, and don’t forget to take an honest look at your squat positioning and standards (Foot position? Range of motion? Quality?)!
