Written on June 16, 2014 at 4:42 am, by Eric Cressey
It's time to kick off the week with a collection of recommended reading. This week, we've got a "squat technique" theme:
Short Topic: There's a Squatting Controversy? Seriously? - This was a quick blog from Bill Hartman, but it poses a question that a lot of people probably haven't considered.
How Deep Should I Squat? - Cressey Performance co-founder Tony Gentilcore takes a closer look at what may limit squat depth - and how to fix it.
To Squat or Not to Squat? - I wrote this article back in 2009, but the recommendations still hold water.

Thank you! I have been struggling with squat depth and that second article gave me so many great suggestions to work on. Good find!

Hi Eric,
This is some shameless self promotion…but I recently wrote an article on the squat. It’s by no means at the same caliber as the individuals above, but I think it compliments the articles you mentioned.
