strengthen transversus abdominus and hip flexors
>transversus abdominus
can you use normal words mister wizard
He's repeating some athleanx shit. It's just your abs. It means keep your abs tight to keep your torso angle steady.
>can't fix my buttwink
technically, if it doesn't hurt, your buttwink should not be considered a problem
Stop worrying about things that don’t fricking matter. Lift weights and shut the frick up
And stop listening to obese powersharters who spout dumb shit because they want to feel smart and important.

Are you tall by any chance? Or have disproportionately long legs?
I could not fix it until I started putting a small 2.5kg plate under my heels while squatting.
I went from struggling with 2 plates and feeling like I was gonna blow my lower back out to doing 3 plates in a deep and controlled matter.
I know IST and most internet people refuse to accept this but everyone is different and there isn't just "one" correct way to squat.
Could you also wear squat/lifting shoes instead of putting the plates under your feet?
Try elevating your heels
Butt wink can’t be removed. The squat is a natural human movement but it’s not a movement humans use to move loads. It’s a resting position. And in a resting position with no load a butt wink is not an issue. So by putting a barbell on you and squatting, you are trying to make a resting position into something it isn’t. This is an issue that cannot be resolved. You can listen to all the tough guys saying their body can handle it and only weaklings can’t but wait in ten years to hear what they are saying then about their backs?
So then what am I supposed to do for legs?
Do I just ignore squats and do a bunch of isolations?
Sled is pretty good. Single leg stuff like split squats. High rep body weight squats get hard if you can handle going that high. Doing them very slow helps.

Split squats, front squats, pistols, squats to parallel...
dont go ass to grass, youre not a chinese weightlifter, youre a gamer who goes to the gym 3 hours per week.
I've been getting shot for years for just going to parallel. I'm 6'4 and have the buttwink as well. Anytime I started to go lower on the squat it just felt unnatural
*Been getting shit. Never been shot..yet
Only incels care about squat depth so just ask them when they last had sex. Shuts them up every time.
just do front squats. I'm 6 ft 3 and i had lower back rounding and bar path problems forever with back squats. Now I do front squats ATG with a perfectly straight back and my quads and core get a way better workout too.
Chad answer. Front squats should honestly be the default for the average ISTizen, they force you to maintain proper posture and develop your body better.
arms crossed always hurts my clavicles, i have to supinate my wrists hard which works since im still moving babyweight but one day im gonna fail and snap my shit up
I never do either of those. I always use wrist straps.
just do low bar lmao
low bar is a meme lift. he will have small legs and a big butt.
*do high bar
*use squat shoes or elevate your heels
*stretch your adductors and glutes
*knees more forward (see pic in OP)
because you have shit ankle mobility and you're focused on going to atg without understanding that POSITION is more important than absolute depth.
If you want to high bar squat, do it with a wider stance, knees forward, and drop your hips between your heels. Maintain back tension and keep your torso vertical. Or unironically just do the Ripplebreasts lowbar squat.
this homie gets it
Off-topic:
I have some diffuse pain for a week now in my left hip-joint area. What’s causing this? Any ideas?
>go to parallel
>no buttwink
