Hey man, I just wanted to take the time to thank you for making all of these brilliant, easy to understand videos. The knowledge presented on your channel is able to be absorbed by the layperson and applied at the gym. That is the mark of true genius my friend. You understand the material so well that you are able to explain it without using technical jargon that typically alienates a student from learning a subject. What you are doing is exactly why I am going back to school. You're creating content and teaching a mass audience how to better their lives through fitness. Thank you again for doing what you do. If you are open to the idea, and have the time, I'd like to ask you a few questions on your career and how you got to where you are today. Let me know if you're open to an e mail or a direct message.

My squat suffers because my gluteus medius is practically useless as a result of having no hip joint for a year and then having a leg length discrepancy after the joint was finally replaced.

Dear Dr. Aaron I've recently noticed when I back squat that the bar has a tendency to rotate about 15 - 20 degrees to the right (so that the plates on the left side of the bar are "ahead" of the plates on the right side when looking from the side). From behind there is nothing to notice. I do not notice a hip shift. Could you maybe make a video on ways to correct this?

I don't really understand why keeping your knees warm helps. I mean obviously if your knees were not warmed up and creaky then I imagine your squat wouldn't feel smooth. but isn't that what the point of a warm up is? so what does the knee sleeves do for me, you mentioned stability in the knee, what do you mean by that exactly? lastly when can knee sleeves be used to help with knee pain? like a temporary aid? maybe for senior or obese lifters?

How about trying the eccentric (negative or lowering) single leg squat while holding a towel or rope that is hanging over a pull up bar (or other above head-level object). This will allow you to decrease the load to test your stability. You may even want to train the single leg squat by holding the towel/rope in your left hand while single leg squatting with your right foot (and vice versa).

I have some ver old McDavid neoprene knee sleeves.. and they're fine. They're nice and warm (and sweaty and smelly and the stitches got loose which I then fixed.. .still fine). I got some rocktape which are a bit tighter but fine as well (save them for max attempts.. probably just psychological, but hey I'll take it) I recently bought some Strengthshop single ply knee sleeves and I think you can compare them to "competition-fit" sleeves as in they keep my knees tighter and make me feel less pain when I squat. Yeah I know I should fix that, but the best way I found to fix my knee pain is actually to squat A LOT. Actually they felt best when I returned to squatting after a layoff and I did a stint of Smolov (Jr)

I have the same thing. Not to do with strength. My squat is uneven with no weight. It looks like one leg lower than the other. I deadlift conventional, but if I try sumo, my setup is uneven. If I bulgarian split squat I can feel a little pinching in the top of my right hip. So it could be some mobility/tightness thing, but I don't know what.

I've been getting over a knee tendinopathy for the past year and can finally push the weights consistently on the squat without knee pain. Surprisingly enough, most times I try using knee sleeves (7mm) I get inflammation and pain afterwards in the problematic knee. I stick to fabric knee sleeves now. Could this be because they are too tight? (very likely) Or patellar maltracking? None of the above? Anyways, wanted to share that and hopefully get your 2cents Aaron!
@SquatUniversity7 жыл бұрын
Hard to say - some knee sleeves if worn tightly could potentially cause more compression on the kneecap itself and therefore lead to more inflammation. Sounds like you've made a good choice by switching to fabric sleeves for now.

I'm glad you liked the video - it is definitely important to work on your single leg squat. Even though you have good strength with a regular squat, we all should be capable of a single leg squat. An inability to show good technique with this form of the squat means we have some weak links in our body's ability to move which down the road could lead to an injury.

Fantastic video - thank you! Hip shift during squatting is something I'm battling with at the moment. In your experience, is the shift to one side because that side is favoured/dominant or (conversely) because coordination on that side is lacking so the glutes aren't firing when they should? I'm having trouble identifying the reason so not sure which side I should be focusing on strengthening. That is, I'm not sure which side to do your banded exercises on - the side I'm shifting towards or away from?
@SquatUniversity7 жыл бұрын
I would focus on both sides. The body can compensate both ways actually - shifting to the dominant side at times because it's stronger or shifting to the weaker side in an attempt to recruit other muscles to produce power and keep the body moving. Thats why I like moving into a single leg stance to fix many of the problems because it's such a great way to really expose the problems that you can hide when trying to fix this in a double leg stance.

What are your thoughts on squatting with scoliosis? Due to my scoliosis, my left shoulder is higher than my right. Whenever I unrack the barbell, it is noticeably tilted towards my right instead of being parallel to the ground. I believe this is what is causing my hips to shift to the right whenever I barbell squat as the weight is not balanced on my back. I do not have any noticeable hip shift when I do bodyweight squats. Are heavy barbell squats safe for someone like me, or should I stick with other exercises where my scoliosis doesn't affect me?
@SquatUniversity7 жыл бұрын
Theres a number of different factors that go into squatting with scoliosis. If the problem is causing a significant shift in the squat due to the placement of the bar not being balanced, it could create long term problems with the body if heavy weight is pushed in the squat. I always recommend going to see a physical therapist for a hands on evaluation before entering into a heavy training program to see if there are any modifiable factors that need to be considered.

I have been having a time with my hips the last two weeks. I have been stretching and rehabing. I have an old injury on one side and now have a small hip impengement. Now when i squat with my toes foward and feet more narrow im shifting to the side thats been bothering me (left side). when I turn my toes out a small amount and go a tad wider i shift to my right side. helpp

Can this have anything to do with my scoliosis?

Watching my squat from behind, I tend to want to not only shift right, but it looks like the left side of my pelvis dips slightly lower vertically. I can't figure out what's going on there, but I periodically have right knee pain.

Same problem here. Did you try out the exercises? Did it work?

I have noticed lately my knee has been caving in a little when I squat, even with body weight .. I have been told previously that one of my hips is further toward than the other, would this be connected? What can I do 😭 x

Could the hip shift actually be a structural problem? I have scoliosis and it's hard to tell what's structural and what's not. 🤦♀️

Exact same situation here. Causing me knee pain on the same side that my hip shifts. Wondering if its scoliosis or if the scoliosis has caused musce imbalances.
