Fix Your Squat (CHECK TIBIAL ROTATION)

Focusing too high in the chain. What causes the tubular rotation? The Eversion of the foot. If he's trying to create it as you suggest by rotating the tibia, he may not actually have a limitation, he just may not be everting the foot enough to get the full range of motion in his tibia. If he can't evert his foot fully, it may be an ankle mobility issue.

Magic

Is it normal to especially feel pain in the fibula joint while doing this exercise? Is a bad fibula mobility also causing similar problems?

When I perform the test for internal rotation and really try to push it, the very superior part of the right tibia hurts or maybe it's the medial meniscus. Can forcing internal tibial rotation in 90 knee flexion cause damage? My left tibia has slightly less internal rotation , but it doesn't hurt to perform the test. My quads are stronger on the left side. What are you thoughts?

porque siento q se me mueve la rodilla y no el tobillo

Awesome, thank you so much. I have this exact problem on my right side. Will work on this!

thank you Aaron for all of the content you share with the people for free, we all need this stuff.

this instantly improved my squat.

ive worked on ankle dorsiflexion a good amount and when i test i can go about 4 inches past my toe. however when i squat my knees cant go past at all.

and now it all makes sense... why my toes want to point outward when i squat, why the squat feels so un comfortable.

cant wait to do more of these in the coming week! under rated channel :)

I don’t get it shouldn’t there be the abduction/rotation if the squat is a superior to inferior movement.

Does this have to deal with popliteus muscle?

You are such a legend!
I noticed this before on my squat, now I know how to fix. Many thanks! 🙏

Thank you a lot Mr Squat University I tried it just now and it significantly improved my squat

Hi Does this help external rival rotation or internal ?

Hola aga uno para la ernia discal lumnar.

Both of my leg angle Re different how to fix this

Amazing

I think if I keep watching your videos I will be able to squat properly for the first time in my life!

Since the tibial rotation is driven from the top down by the deep hip external rotators during the squat...this results in femoral external rotation but its actually tibial internal rotation. This is because the rate of the rotation of the tibia is SLOWER relative to the femur. Thus, from a biomechanical stand point, it would be technically be tibial internal rotation during the squat.

When he performs the test in the seated position, with the movement driven by the foot, since this is a bottom up approach, this is when its considered tibial external rotation.

The average person does not understand this. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy.

Hi Aaron, this is a game- changer drill! Cannot thank you enough!!

does anyone know if a high ankle sprain will make this worse? I had a high ankle sprain a few years back and I notice I tend to lean over the side where I did't sprain it. Any opinion would help.

I really cannot squat with an inwardly rotated tibia. My lateral knee just dies 😪

I’m on my way to squat big ass weight thanks to your videos. Thank you doing what you do.

How often would I do this? Just before I squat or like 3-5x a week?

A simple, but awesome exercise! Works great and foot feels much better. Thanks a lot!

You are amazing. Two physical therapist, multiple orthopedic doctors and all I needed was this simple exercise 😂😂😂

Thank you!!!!❤❤❤

Dude, i just love you.

Thank You 😊

What caused the limited tibial internal rotation?

I have slight external tibial torsion. Should I try to force my knee to align with my foot (which I cannot achieve), or should I just try the same as in the video but keeping the standard angle difference that I have between my ankle and knees? This means that my knee would track slightly off my foot, though it is still moving outside from the point of view of my hips, also my knees do not cave in.

This video says tib rotation but its mcgill big 3?

Hi Dr! Just a small question: can this exercise be done everyday? I mean I know some exercise is not the more you do the better results you get, so just wondering whether this can be done everyday so I can get quicker improvement

How often should you do these to make it go away? How many sets? 3 sets per day and then of course I'd assume use as a warm up before squatting or leg day?

Awesome content, thanks!

Wow! My knees has been bothering me alot recently while squatting. did the rotation test and my foot didnt move at all on the left side. few sets of this and i saw an instant improvement. Hope this exercisse alongside with some ankle mobility exercisses will get my knees back to were they used to. thanks for your work

Does the tibia internally rotate or externally rotate going into a squat? if it internally rotates, will that not promote pronation of the foot and valgus of the knee?

Thank you

I know it's from JookTheFirst the end credits's song, but does someone the name of it specifically? Couldn't find in his soundcloud...

I have his exact same problem but I sink into the worse side. What does that mean?

Thanks so interesting

I’ve had knee issues for the past 6 years and this is the first exercise that I have done that gave it significant releif

💯👍

Thank you for this video. It helps me a lot

in that first test. . .how do you know ur isolating tibial movement versus assessing internal movement/adduction of the ankle? looks to me like it's more ankle than it is tibia--the tibia doesn't seem like there'd be really any movement

Hello, I feel this in the achillis and lateral calf, anyone? Thanks

I’m tired about working in ankle mobility and see no results and when I checked my tibial rotation I just realized that it’s so poor. Thanks now I will work on it

I’m having something similar issue but my fibula is extremely stiff because I have injured my ankle and knee from many years ago. Right side knee cannot squat completely due to a lot of tension.

How many working sets should I do?

Amazing
