I think these are great videos which is why I posted them here in a thread about links that help with lifting.

EliteFTS also has a couple that explains how to deadlift and Louie has a couple that talks about benching (dynamically). These ALL are good and if you're serious about lifting heavier weights, you should watch them. I'll post the others I'm speaking about.

No, it's ok. What's important is that people see them and watch them. Matt is a great squatter and does a great job of explaining how to properly squat.

Enjoy Louie's Videos. A lot of valuable information. Also enjoy reading Dr Squat's books too. Had an experience of a lifetime training at Doyle Kennedy's gym with his team years ago.

Learning proper form and technique is important..but brute strength is a gift.

Louie is the godfather of powerlifting imho, guy has consistently helped create some of the strongest guys on the planet, wish I could have trained at WestSide at my prime, I was a strong mo-fo, but, I loved seeing guys stronger than me move some massive weights. Good for the ego..Some arrogant assholes I knew could have used a trip there it's called humility. I also liked (Dr. Squat) Fred Hatfield's stuff.

Doyle, that's a name many don't know. He pulled 900lbs+ with ease.

any other recommended squat vids? Most are either too short or too wordy for my taste.

That vid looks like it would destroy my lower back, I've always had lower back problems most my life, even before I ever lifted. I gotta be SUPER careful on deads and squats or I jack up my lower back and it screws up my whole program for a couple of weeks. I cringe watching that guy's technique and form doing deads, I think that would put me on the floor in the fetal position for the rest of the day...

Pulling sumo doesn't put much stress on the lower back at all. It's actually more leg work than back. What's hard about it is externally rotating your knees (turning them out) and having serious hip flexibility to get into that position. You'll need to foam roll your IT bands, adductors, abductors, etc to help get into position.

Nicely said Ms Steel. I lift both sumo and conventional depending on the day and my mood.

But the the teeter-todder part, it looks like he sort of pulls back with his back to get that teeter-todder motion. Whenever I do deads I don't pull back at all cause it puts stress on my lower back, so instead of ending with a slant I just end in a straight line, in fact I actually keep my chin down to force more focus on my abs and to keep that straight line. I think I learned that from diesel strength.

I remember watching these. All of them. They're so informational and good. I learned a lot when I began to box squat.
