When Squatting, Push Your Knees Out. NEVER allow your knees to buckle in on the way up. You have to keep your knees out at all times because it’s … Safer for you knees – no twisting. Keep in mind your feet should point in the same direction that your knees go when Squatting.Safer for you back – pushing your knees out will prevent lower back rounding (what some people call the “butt wink”)Involves your groin – and as I just explained in point 4, the more muscles you’re using (here your groin) the more weight you will Squat. You could do light Squats with a mini-band around your knees – the band will force you to push your knees out. But the better way is simply not to be lazy about this – force your knees out when Squatting, and force them out hard. thanks to @stronglifts.com for inspiring this post Read more https://stronglifts.com/squatting-big-weights-essential-tips/ #SquatUniversity #squat #squattips #squats #squatsfordays #squatsquad #squatbooty #squatlife #squatting #squatgirl #gym #fitness #sportsperformance #explosiveness #lowerbodypower #lowerbodystrength #functionalstrengthtraining #functionalmovement #asstograss #sports #weightlifting #athletictrainer #athleticeatery #toronto #barbell #squatheavy #nutrition #macros #smarttraining #stronglifts (at Toronto, Ontario)
