The squat is one of the most important movements in not just weight-lifting and for sports, but for life.

So many things that we do requires a proper and good quality squat.

In this video, I demonstrate one of my favorite ways to train the body-weight squat for technique, mobility, and control.

I do THREE unique things to make this challenging and help with proper muscle activation and form.

1. Create tension by pressing into a Yoga Block.

2. Place a band around the knees to get the hips firing.

3. Perform a 5-5-5 technique of 5 second eccentric lowering, 5 second pause, and 5 second concentric return to the start position.

This gives a solid muscle burn and really helps my depth and quality of the squat.

An amazing warm-up and way to improve your squat depth and quality.

Hip tightness and pinching in the hip joint can be a limiting factor in movements such as squatting or when getting into specific jiu-jitsu positions as well.

I started using the “Bear Crawl” position with a band to address this issue. This technique is great because it addresses the hip joint on multiple levels.

First the joint moves through its available range actively, then the mobilization band is used to focus on the hip capsule addressing the “joint glide,” as well as to create additional space in the hip joint to give clearance from the tissue pinching up into the capsule, and third the muscles surrounding the hip are activated allowing the muscles to fire and wake up which provides for a more complete and thorough technique that actually works well and quickly.

Here is a link to some monster bands that work pretty well https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NAPYKRG/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=jiujitsupt-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=c65b1520d9eaf4232acf670de775d708&creativeASIN=B00NAPYKRG
