Lose Fat, Strengthen Joints, Rapid Fat Loss

Hey everybody,

I want to share a very special video with you today that our friend Adam Steer created for us.  It’s called the Airborne Squat, and he’s going to teach you how you can progress to this over time.  What’s really cool is that this may seem very advanced in the beginning, but when you know the right steps, everything gets easier.

We are both very interested to hear your opinions on this video, and we’re happy to answer any questions that you have.  Please make sure to leave a comment below.

Also, for anyone that missed out on the ‘Learn How to Lunge’ video, it’s right here:

Adam’s site was acting funny the other day, so I didn’t want you to lose the opportunity to see such an important video…

Really hope you enjoy – please leave a comment below – I appreciate you.

have a great day,

Kareem

thks guys yall rock gonna apply this in tomorrow mornings workout!

Thanks for posting this to your web page.
Great information.

Sweet!… Seeing that in slow motion and noticing the balance of the shifted weight from the upper torso over the front lunge foot and the buttocks and lower back behind the front lunge foot is a major key to not loosing your balance when you drop down. Friends always try doing a lunge with thier free leg pointed straight forward and going down to a sitting postion while keeping the free leg from touching the ground. Is this bad to do these? It is pretty hard especially overcoming raising out of the lowest position to stand upright without having the free leg not touch the ground.

Hey Adam,

How far forward can you lean your body for this? Leaning forward helps balance and also helps keep the front knee back but I guess takes the glutes out of the picture?

Thanks

Like what I see. Most interesting “twist” to old move. Will have to try it!! Good stuff men!

Thanks for these videos. Explanations were great. I love hearing about common mistakes and why you shouldn’t do them. Nice work

Though I’m not nearly as strong as you guys, I see that I’ve been doing these right. Actually, I don’t do front lunges yet because I know I would not be able to keep good form. I’ll get there! Thank you for your precise instructions.

Hi Guys !
What about doing lunges with barbell, Should I keep it on shoulders or on chest and what I should take care of ??

So helpful to have something to hang on to for that squat, even I can do that now, Cheers! Thanks for the re-posted lunge too, the site wouldnt play it before. It’s tricky to get the weight onto the front foot, but can see how important it is, especially for the sore knee!

Raphaelle – Thanks! Let us know how your workout goes.

Marnie – Glad you like it.

Mark – Do you mean a Pistol Squat – the free leg is actually shooting out in front? If so, they are great, but you need to work up to them. Starting with Dr K’s variations and then working through the Airborne Squat is a great way to get there. And here’s a vid of some ways of working into the Pistol:

Kym Hutcheon – Hi Kym. Generally leaning forward is your body’s way of fooling you into thinking you’re getting a decent range of motion. Instead, I’d work on keeping the spine as upright as possible and using a prop like I did in the video to assist you. Eventually you’ll build up the strength and mobility to do it without the prop.

Frank – Cool. Let us know how it goes!

jake – Thanks Jake. Glad you like the vids. Let us know once you try the material out…

oolala53 – You’ll definitely get there. Incremental progression is the name of the game. And you’ve got lots of material here to work with!

Hannu – Hey. Personally, I never use a barbell for these. If I want to add weight it’s usually with dumbbells, a kettlebell or some Clubbells. But your can do them with a barbell. Just make sure you hit all the cues Dr K gave you. The bar can either go on the back or the front (just like a squat) as long as you can maintain form.

Ollie – Ha. Dr K was being polite when he side our site was acting funny. In fact, we got hacked to pieces and are in the midst of getting our code all cleaned up and ready to move to a more secure host. Sorry for the inconvenience…

I definately feel the burn with just these minor adjustments to the positioning of the hips, will use for variations, always good to keep the muscles guessing.

Thanks Ryan, great to get to the nitty gritty and, Wow, Kareem, wish I had understood these points a while ago! Some I was doing and now understand the structure a lot better. Thanks!

Yes, Adam the “Pistol Squat” is exactly what I was reffering to. Great video link you had on it also, Thanks! We use to call them “Double Expletive Modifyer Noun” squats. Now I know the proper name but not sure if that makes me feel any different about them.

Great site. A lot of useful information here. I’m sending it to some friends!

Thanks, Adam. Yeah, I think leaning forward is a big weakness in my squats. I know it also puts stress on my lower back so thanks for the confirmation. Cheers!

Hi Kareem. No offence but it would be more helpful if you could slow down a bit. You have a tendency to speak too fast sometimes that some portions of your speech are difficult to follow. Anyways you share very useful tips. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Will add these to my list of great workout moves! Love it that you’re filming outside!

Best to you both!

You created some good points there.
I did a research about the subject and discovered many people will consent with each other with your weblog.

Good luck everybody! – I will come back again. Are you on facebook or twitter? Will like to follow you.

Just wanna say thank you for the data which you basically have been sharing. I discovered your site and genuinely appreciate what you’re doing.Thanks for nice sharing.

I don’t think most people realise just how important the squat really is. It is most likely the most effective muscle building compound exercise out of all of them. As a rule people start using far too much weight when they first start squatting, this is a bad idea. Lift a weight were you are capable to achieve 10 reps, when you are lifting at this weight you can fully focus on good form, learning how to carry out squats with decent form is going to avoid incidents when you begin placing more weight on the bar. Also to help avert further incidents from occurring, make sure that your knees are moving directly over the top of the toes. I hope these suggestions help!
