Squatting Past 90 Degrees Will Ruin Your Knees…

How I Teach The Squat

"Makes my flat butt look fantastic." 🍑

My knee stopped hurting when I started squatting deep I expect them to go with age anyway from years of umpiring baseball So far so good

237 for 5 (65+ yo)

Clarence Kennedy disagrees

I’ve been squatting my entire life ass to grass and no belt. Almost 37 years old and lift super heavy all the time. My knees and back feel great.

The only reason you need to go past 90 degrees is if you are training for Olympic lifts such at squat cleans or snatches .

agreed dangerous. very very very dangerous. once you break 90 degrees with your ass + hips, start going up slowly. you isolate those leg muscles and get a much more concentrated work out. going all the way down like that is criminal.

these kids gotta take those shoes off

If you don’t past 90 degrees it’s not squat

That’s what they told me 30 years ago…
