Show Notes
A common technical issue we see with the barbell squat that may lead to knee pain or other injuries or issues, is not achieving full knee extension on the last rep of the set.
This has many indications including:
-
Anterior knee pain
-
Hitting the rack with the plates on the way in
-
Missing the hooks when trying to re-rack the weight
-
A weak lockout
So if you or your lifters are struggling with any of these things on the squat, this less-than-ten-minute episode on the PRS Podcast is for you!
