lol, wich muscles? leg muscles or core stability?
isn't it weird though since in the squat vid, I was getting lower than a chair seat, and I paused at the bottom for a while?
My legs are probably very weak, when I first started benching my max was like 60lbs, and I never trained my legs, so... yea
1) your core, your hip extensors, hip flexors, everything!
2) it is not weird at all that you can get lower without the chair. Look at how sloppy the squat is when you go that low.
The thing that you need to remeber is:
Getting there is not as important as how you get there.
basically, squatting down to that depth is not important if you are getting there is a biomechanically 'unsound' way.
okay.
I think you really need someone to be there.
the hardest part for me is watching these videos and knowing that if I were there I could coach and instruct and make you do what you are trying to do....But, I am not, so my hands are tied.

first 2 were bad, last one I think I got it http://youtube.com/watch?v=J15ylmAZf2o&mode=user&search=
the last rep is good right? I just needed some practice, I can do it easily now...
with 10lb plates-

what do you think needs stretching?
sorry youtube was being slow
that looks better than the other one.
everything needs stretching! You are all kinds of tight. I mean, you squat down and your torso is nearly parallel with the floor! There is something wrong there.
Your calves appear to be really tight, hip flexors as well.
Keep practicing with the plates. Also, notice when the plates are under your feet, if you watch your squat there, when you hit the chair your torso angle brakes parallel with your shank. At about 60 degrees of hip flexion you appear to be okay. Work on that as your functional ROM for now, as you improve your flexibility to get down deeper.

cool..btw the link ir ur sig doesnt work
thanks for telling me, its fixed.
I could not find the side lying bicycles, do you have a link? I think the lying abductions clamshells must of activated my glutes, because I got alot deeper on the squats, and felt more stable (even though my form was bad)
If I get a foam roller, what muscles what I use it on, I wouldn't know what to do, or do you foam roll the whole body?
The bicycles begin like a side lying abduction. Instead of abduction your leg, you want to flex your hip and knee to 90 degrees and the bring it back. Do this slowly and under control, and try to prevent your thigh from rotating down or up. Imagine a glass of water resting on your leg that you don't want to spill. Notice how it kind of looks like you're pedaling a bicycle.
You could do your whole body pretty much, particularly the lower body. Check out the sticky where P links up an article on it. I believe the stretching sticky has it within.
lol just started it 3 days ago and haven't worked out since
You're going to have a hard time achieving your goals like that. Mike, you should spend less time posting and more time getting shit together.
