I'm interested in your opinion on squatting with smith machines. I'm someone who's fairly inflexible and my squat form is really bad. My football coach has me using a smith machine for the time being until I can improve my form. I know there is some debate as to whether the smith machine squat is inferior to the free standing squat or not and you seem like someone who would know.

Great to see you on youtube johnny.Saw your Squatt rx a year ago! And i'd like to recomend to all of you people, check out Johns squat rx series, and start using powerlifting methods. Don't waste your time on isolating movements. Work on Basis exersices like squatt, bench press, pulls, and up press. use heavy weghts Eat well, and you'll get strong and big like Johnny :)thanks eagain johny for sutch a great inspiration!

Quick question...On the ascent of a squat is the hip flexing...or extending? I thought descending = flexing, ascending = extending
