hi i'm terry hollands i'm an ambassador
0:06
for my pro team we're just about to
0:08
release the terry holland strongman
0:11
type bundle and um yeah it's coming soon
0:14
it's gonna have all the all the
0:16
supplements you need from a strength
0:17
training point of view um for a strong
0:20
man power lifter any of those type of
0:22
sports it's going to be a real good
0:24
thing or anyone just looking to increase
0:26
strength and power it's going to have
0:28
everything you need keep an eye out for
0:39
i always try and look at a point in
0:41
front of me which is slightly above my
0:45
usually there'll be some sort of mark on
0:47
the wall or something that you can focus
0:49
on you want to keep your eyes on that
0:52
all the way through the squat so even
0:54
when you're lowering down still keep
0:56
your eyes focused on that one spot it'll
0:58
help keep you back in a strong position
1:02
yeah help help you lift bigger weights
1:08
next i would always use the correct
1:10
footwear i know it sounds like a silly
1:12
thing to say but you want something with
1:14
a reasonably hard sole so not soft
1:16
sports shoes that's going to cause you
1:18
some problems in terms of ankle injury
1:22
if you squat with a narrow stance
1:24
ideally you're probably going to want to
1:26
heal on the shoe um the reason being
1:30
if you squat narrow stance and you're
1:32
not particularly flexible your heels
1:34
will be lifting up off the floor
1:36
that's not what you want you always want
1:37
to be driving through your heels i squat
1:40
with a slightly wider stance
1:42
so for me i actually use a flat converse
1:46
shoe with with no hand at all
1:49
i find that that works when you've got a
1:51
wider stance and you turn your feet
1:53
outwards a flat flat shoe is actually
1:55
better but if you're more narrow stance
1:58
with your feet pointing forwards that
2:00
then you're probably going to want to
2:02
um it's the the most important thing
2:05
with a squat is that you're driving
2:06
through your heels not through your toes
2:09
next tip is um keep your chest up as in
2:13
take a big breath in keep your chest up
2:16
don't don't let your let your sort of
2:18
chest drop down and fold your back
2:21
it's all to do with keeping your back
2:23
same same as with dead lift you you
2:25
always want to be lifting things with a
2:29
and the final one for the squat i i
2:31
always recommend using a belt and knee
2:33
wraps um personally i just think if
2:36
you've got an option to sort of use the
2:38
protection to stop yourself getting
2:40
injured then always do that i mean i
2:44
i mean i know a lot of guys sort of
2:45
recommend squatting lighter weights and
2:47
when you're starting without a belt and
2:49
knee wraps personally i don't feel
2:52
um you're always going to be
2:56
you know when you eventually get to a
2:57
point where you're lifting really heavy
2:59
weights you're going to be using the
3:00
belt and knee wraps so get used to
3:02
wearing them and also protect yourself
