| I like the initiative, but I wouldn't recommend these tutorials to my friends. A couple points I'd change in the back squat tutorial (which was the first one I checked): - "Position your feet with an outwards 45-degree angle": the angle depends on the hip anatomy, and 45 degrees is very extreme. Rather, make sure that your hip, knee and foot is in the same plane at all times. - "Pause for a moment at the bottom" is okay but unnecessary. - No mention of proper tension in the upper body (and especially avoiding rounding in the lower back). This can become extremely dangerous, and preventing injury should be the number 1 priority. (FYI, an amazing guide to bracing [1].) - Also for safety: instead of "until your thighs just break parallel with the ground", one shall not go deeper than their mobility allows (which might be above parallel). - It's hard to follow the movement with the camera moving up-and-down and zoomed in so much. A fixed camera that shows the entire body (and is possibly circling around the person) would be much better. The knees and ankles are very important, yet we get a single glance at her feet. - The video shows the squatter in the opposite direction than in the description. This way she needs to walk backwards to put the weight back, which undesirable. [1]: https://www.reddit.com/r/weightroom/comments/h7yncz/brace_yo... |
