Squat Walkout Tutorial: Setup, Timing, and Consistency – CLICK HERE TO VIEW

In this video, we break down squat walkout technique in detail, including setup, timing, consistency, and how to minimize wasted movement so you can stabilize heavy weights more efficiently. Over the past decade, walkout technique across powerlifting has improved significantly, but common errors like rushing, inconsistent steps, and unnecessary movement still show up frequently, especially at the local level. A consistent and repeatable walkout can be the difference-maker for advanced lifters trying to control maximal loads, so this video covers the most common faults, the key anchors that create stability, step-by-step tutorials for both the 3-step and 2-step walkout, and how to optimally set rack uprights based on your stance and lead foot. Whether you are a beginner learning the fundamentals or an experienced lifter trying to improve that final 2-3% of performance, this guide will help you build a more controlled and repeatable squat setup.

BFR Training for Powerlifters: When, Why, and How to Use It – CLICK HERE TO VIEW

Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training is something that had a surge in popularity within powerlifting years ago, but has largely fallen out of the conversation. In this video, I break down what BFR training actually is, what is happening physiologically when we partially occlude blood flow, and how that allows us to create a meaningful hypertrophy stimulus with very light loads. From there, I discuss why BFR fell out of favor in powerlifting, how shifts in programming trends and gym environments played a role, and why it may be time to reconsider it as a useful tool. We take a look at how BFR can be implemented to add hypertrophy while limiting mechanical stress on the joints and tendons, how it can be used to manage cranky elbows and knees, and where it may fit best within a powerlifting program. Lastly, I go through the practical side, including the exercises I prefer, how I structure sets and reps, how tight the cuffs should be, and where BFR should be placed within a training session.

Why More Shoulder Depression On Bench Isn’t Better – CLICK HERE

A long standing cue and technical recommendation is to depress the shoulders and scapula. While this cueing has the right intentions, it often gets taken too far with lifters over depressing their shoulder blades, while lacking the understanding of the possible technique faults this can lead to. In this video, I discuss the scapulohumeral rhythm and how that relates to the bench press in powerlifting. With most modern day bench press techniques, we bias into a position that limits our ability to full depress the shoulder blades. And by trying to cue more and more depression, we end up just fighting against the positions we are trying to maintain. So to combat this issue, I discuss why this happens and what we can do instead of over cueing depression to achieve the relative positions in the bench press that will help us feel strong and stable.

Understanding Pelvic Orientation In The Squat And Deadlift – CLICK HERE

The way our pelvis orients plays a large role in the relative access to range of motion we can achieve in the squat and deadlift at the hip joint. In this video, I break down what is anterior vs. posterior orientation of the pelvis, and how those correlate with the movement of the sacrum. I look at how anterior vs posterior orientation affects the relative access we have to internal and external rotation of the hip joint. And lastly, I explain the role that plays within the squat and deadlift, and how that can affect technique and our ability to produce force and abide within powerlifting rules.
