This is not just for trainers, it's for anyone who wants to learn to move better. If you get up from a chair or you poop you need to know how to Squat :) Karl and I take a TON of courses and bring back what we know, synthesize it, and then present it to you all as user friendly as possible. In this one we will cover pre-tests for the squat to make sure you have the appropriate range of motion and strength to be squatting and then proper technique and cueing, and then the relevant anatomy.
