After seeing, literally, hundreds of people struggling (sometimes unknowingly) with squat form, I decided to create the Squat Rx instructional videos on squat form and training. This blog is meant to be a platform for those videos, and a place of discussion about strength and conditioning issues for coaches, trainers, teachers, athletes, students, and enthusiasts. Posts and articles are meant to provoke thought, inspiration, and reflection.
My athletic background is in gymnastics, Tae Kwon Do, competitive swimming, powerlifting, and kettlebells. I have coached swimming at the age-group, high school, D3, and masters levels, served as a S&C coach at the high school level, and conducted kettlebell workshops and classes for CrossFit, high school students, and personal trainers.

Good Squatting!

Awesome job, Boris! Your thighs are gettine swole!! Any soreness, and do you find the higher reps hit the quads more, and lower reps hit the hammies more? Or is that just me? Keep on keepin' on.
Thanks Bill.
My legs are always a little sore and tight. I stretch and massage them, but yeah... It would have been better if I had been in good squatting shape going into this, but we do what we can.
