After decades of silence the legendary Tom Platz teaches the right way to squat like a bodybuilder in this 2 hour video. Apologies for all the German.

Some very inspiring words from him there. Such a passion when he talks about the squat rack like it's his spiritual totem poll. -> "If your life doesn't pass before your eyes at least once a week you should find another sport." B)

Interesting how he says that for big legs one just needs squats and hack squats and that leg presses and lunges were just for when he did photo shoots. Also how at the height of his career he only squatted twice a month because that's how much time off he needed to recover.

I love his passion and his attitude. Squatting is a matter of life and death, because I would rather be dead than be a loser in the squatrack. Failing is just not possible with this mindset. Lots of science behind what he says and if you ignore the cliché car and bodybuilding metaphors, the one about negative reps and petting a cat I liked very much because I have a dirty mind.

Interesting watch, I will most certainly change my technique based on this, Thanks Pyroclasm for the vid.

Give me the strength to forgive those who curl in the sqaut rack
