The Squat Bible: The Ultimate Guide to Mastering the Squat and Finding Your True Strength Paperback – March 30, 2017

I am someone that doesn’t know much about physical therapy or injuries but I’ve had so many and they hold me back so much, so I decided I had to do something. Squat University on YouTube was always helpful, so I got Dr Horschigs book.Man, I am beyond impressed. I studied this book, took notes, and applied the content. I’ve analyzed my squat and that lead to way more analyses. I understand why my posture is bad, why my right knee hurts, how I’ve been moving wrong, why my thoracic spine always cracks, why it’s hard for to lift overhead, why my right foot is rotated outward, and so much more.Best part is, I did a few of the exercises and my symptoms IMMEDIATELY improved. I have mobility restrictions and injuries everywhere from years of beating myself up and this knowledge has been healing my body so quickly. Thank God for this book, Dr Horschig, and my body. Praise be to God! Thank you Dr Horschig! Write more!!!! Now off to study rebuilding milo….

Most people squat nowadays with a form that's not horrible but it doesn't allow full potential of muscle growth where this book not only helps explain how to do that but also gives other helpful tips concerning aches or pain and how to relieve those with simple exercises.

Very well written, and a wealth of knowledge.

Absolutely loved this book! It was an easy read because it felt like he was just talking to you. He did a great job explaining the fundamentals of the squat as well as ways to address mobility and stability. This is by far one of my favorite books I’ve read. This book is a must buy!

Incredible content, Dr Aaron Horschig is a master of his craft. But the cover print is cropped poorly the spine is on the back—horrible quality control.

I really liked The Squat Bible. I am rebuilding my body from 5 years of debilitating inflammatory arthritis and this book was recommended to me by a nurse friend with a background in exercise physiology as a great place to start so I can rebuild carefully and lessen the risk of injury as I go which has been my limiting factor each time I try to rebuild. I am no stranger to physical therapy, exercise and weight training with several running races, mini triathlons and years of weight training under my belt before the arthriths broke me down and still I had several "a-ha" moments througout the book, one was realizing that even when simply squatting down to pick up something from the floor, it's important to use proper form and posture to complete. I have begun to make changes in my every day movements and during exercise to train my body to move effectively, safely and correctly and I have noticed less knee pain already! I feel this book has given me a really good base of information, including simple tests that I can perform to see where my limitations lie and then work to improve them. I recommend any athete to read this, it's full of injury prevention and exercise optimization information. Rebuilding Milo is another book by the same author and it's my next stop in my sports education/rehabilitation journey!

I am writing a 5 star review not only of the book he wrote but the tremendous follow up he has undertaken on Instagram, Twitter, his new Squat University Podcast and on his own website. The book gives a great introduction to the technical ways to properly do a squat and its benefits. It goes through a lot of the most commonly found problems and their solutions. However because squatting is a movement sometimes static pictures don't do it justice, which is where his online content is so useful as you can watch his examples in short video clips. I've even tweeted him about issues I've had with my own squats and hes personally replied back. That's Awesome!As I get older I realize how important it is to financially support products you appreciate. Could you be cheap and only read his online content? Sure. But I value his work and insight and his help he has given myself and others, so I wanna make sure the man gets paid and this is the most effective way I know how. Dr. Horschig has done a great job in helping us in the gym begin to master one of the most fundamental movements we need for success, and it's because of that I give my highest reccomendation.

What an incredible book. Dr. Aaron horschig is an amazingly devoted expert to the Olympic lifting, powerlifting and squat world. I couldnt Find a better book to tell you to buy. I have A power lifting meet December 10th 2017 and i feel Nothing short of confident with my squat performance. I literally Covers everything from range of mobility to enable yourself to be able to get a proper squat form down to prevent injury and give you your strongest untapped potential. If you don’t want to be a bad ass in the weight room then don’t buy this book. Your loss.
