4 Barbell Only Exercises For Stronger Quads

[@christopherseat9871]

Thankyou once again. No matter how many SQUATS, front, back, and ect. Still I find a new weakness.

[@sikastrength]

Best of luck with them!

[@shotokankaratedude89]

My main focus right now is the high bar squat. So this video really helps! Thanks!

[@sikastrength]

Happy to help!

[@DrAJ_LatinAmerica]

Sincere thanks 👍. All great points.

[@sikastrength]

Thanks for watching!

[@alanrastelli]

Amazing video. Could you do a video on loaded abdominal exercises? Thank you so much

[@sikastrength]

Sure thing!

[@CaelanTierney]

Loving the upload frequency.

[@AndreS_22246]

Very nice thanks 🙏 I really like these useful practical info videos, so big upvote, the more the betterer, thanks 👊

[@sikastrength]

Glad you like them! Let me know if you have something on particular you want to see!

[@AndreS_22246]

@@sikastrength Thanks! I'm such a novice at S&C work I'm almost too novice to ask good questions (if you see what I mean). I need to keep working at the basics before asking any clever questions! (For example I have recently paused my first run at RTA to work on better mobility before re-starting with better form). Something that interests me from various of the Q&As is mention of your Neuromuscular Therapist. Perhaps he/she would make a good podcast guest? Or a small segment on what does/doesn't work in this area. I am not fully 'caught up' on older videos from before I settled in Sikastan, so am conscious this might have been covered!

[@danieljung2279]

I think the behind the back deadlift is also a good option for quad activation especially to simulate the quad control in the bottom position of the back squat

[@sikastrength]

Definitely a more novel one 😄

[@Karsius1]

Is a front foot elevated bulgarian split squat also effective? Would think it would be due to adding a deeper range of motion from the elevated back foot

[@saifullahabdou5966]

I squat lowbar and don't feel my quads at all only hamstrings is that normal and if not can this fix it

[@jordanmeares926]

Can you do a mobility video, With stretching and warm ups for bench, squat and deadlift, thanks

[@sikastrength]

Sure thing!

[@panoskaiolakala1053]

Do a video about zercher squats and their variations

[@TraposaurusFlex]

Please*

[@KwisBwown]

Yes sir 💪🏽🫡💰

03:16 The SDR video clips in this video is too bright!

[@Yupppi]

Especially if you're a grappler including that unilateral work is valuable. And mobility. Even when judo emphasises practicing both sides, you still favour your main side a lot and do more training on that side. I don't know if other grappling even bothers for both sides, but having some unilateral work and mobility practice got rid of my knee and ankle pain that was quite persistent (took almost 10 months or so to dissipate) that was made worse by judo and weightlifting. Both allow great compensation in mobility demanding positions and the result can be quite a poor pattern of movement.

[@dansmith9724]

Any advice on IT band type pain? Buggering up my squat training for the last month.

[@prideneverdies1001]

how did you injure your foot? any video you touch on it? and how is it going the recovery? thanks for the content

[@a0zuniverse]

He made a video on it back when it happened. He broke it during Brazilian jiu jitsu I think

[@chc84]

You need to see a professional about this.

[@LatimusChadimus]

@@chc84 preferably a female professional, ya know, just in case

[@Kusovka]

Damn this fridge is smart.

[@sanderadema9023]

I struggle with keeping tight during the entire lift. my knees don't cave and I push them out (that was the queue I always followed) but at the bottom I seem to relax. what do you suggest a work around to this is?

[@sikastrength]

Don't push your knees out, push them forward!

[@DanielCho1997]

so you're saying to not squat like clarence?

[@gaxyhunter2205]

Yes, which is a point Clarence himself would generally agree with

[@sikastrength]

If you watch his latest he's trying to squat like that again, it looks good

[@uneasyMeat]

One, two, tree.

[@mehmetcanbicen12]

My squat unfortunately looks like the one at the start…

[@drhjhulsebos]

I met a woman once with zombie grip, it wasn't very pleasant

[@sikastrength]

Sir this a Wendy's (I've never been to one)

[@jonnyoneplate]

Whats you lads' opinion of the "sissy squat machine" bench? Its supposed to isolate quads I think.

[@UlrikHelms]

Learn to go heavy on 3s pause Zombie squats and your quad issues will be history.

[@prideneverdies1001]

he invented it

[@crackedoutofmymind-h8m]

bro you can squat like that cause youre built like that lol someone like me can never squat like that

[@sikastrength]

You can! Everyone can squat well
