Put in the correct time, effort and technique and you can practically eliminate knee injuries from your program. You should do two Squat workouts per week and since this is a Core Lift, you should vary your sets and reps. <STRONG>STATUS:</STRONG> A Top Priority BFS Core Lift <STRONG>OTHER BENEFITS: </STRONG>Monumental in many areas of athletic improvement including hip, leg, speed and jumping power. &nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=center>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG><U>OTHER EXERCISES:</U> </STRONG>Lunges, Box Squats, Front Squats and many other exercises will have a positive effect in preventing knee injuries as long as they are done with the knees in straight alignment.&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=center>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG>CORRECTING KNEE ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS</STRONG> </DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG><U></U></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG><U>SQUATTING ALIGNMENT:</U> </STRONG>I like to sit all my athlets in the bleachers. Their hips should be at least one foot apart in order to be unrestricted in assuming a correct alignment squatting position. Tell them to get their feet in a squatting stance or as we say at BFS, "Get into an Athletic Stance." The athletes may turn their toes out slightly for balance. Have them "sit tall" and "spread their chest" which will get their backs and upper body into a correct squatting position. (See Figure 1) In this photo, I am checking Luther Elliss' knees for correct alignment. (Luther is a 6-5 300 pound star Defensive Tackle for Detroit) My finger is pointing at the middle of his knee. If I were to drop a string straight down, where would it land? In this case, in this photo, the string would land in the middle of his foot which is perfect. (Photos will be added at a later date)&nbsp; If you had 50 athletes in the bleachers, it would take less than two minutes to identify all the athletes who would not fit this perfect alignment format. It would also only take about two minutes to correct any alignment problems. There are three ways to look at knees for correct squatting alignment: Knees out, in or forward.</DIV> <DIV align=left>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=left><STRONG>Knees Out: </STRONG>(See Figure 2)&nbsp; You will be able to see this problem easily whether the athletes are in the bleachers or actually squatting.&nbsp; The knees-out problem can easily be corrected by just widening out the athlete's stance.&nbsp; Widen out the stance until the kneesNV'hcE~#o +Aߴ׶A- nUc yU?0ԙk]0P&LPOGd )VAliK+iF=j9%#N!M6b_ö&cMJaCg*Wa5I marveled at the similarity between the Green Bay and BFS Strength and Conditioning programs.
