Do you understand the teaching method to an OH head squat, snatch balance and bar placement when it comes to the external rotation of the shoulders? The teaching starts with behind the neck press with the bar or PVC over the shoulder, hip and ankle with eyes in the neutral position. That video shows EXACTLY that. The load is directly balanced over those joints. As long as there is enough thoracic mobility and the load isn't shifting forward "butt wink" is irrelevant. Using the term "butt wink" is que term used when teaching the progression. What you see in that video is damn near textbook.

Because politics is mostly commonsense. Training is more technical.

But it's mostly true. They rarely win on policy. They win by promising free everything to young, influenced college kids and oppressed mostly lazy people that think they're entitled. You don't have to tell me why I get so much hate. I know this. I've known this for years. I get hate because people hate hearing the truth.

Actually, no. Do you really comprehend how much your world view is informed/shaped by the internet? I bet it is %100. Can you even comprehend such a figure and what that means!?

coach, you can see the knees get loaded before the hips. The knees move forward then the hips. The heels are coming off the ground.  The elbows are bent-compensating to allow the overhead position-the head pokes forward 1st rep, the chest moved forward to allow for balance overhead

What the hell is a "butt wink?"

When you have 25 years of squatting wrong to unlearn, you hear a lot of terms like "buttwink". It's essentially when you squat lower than your hip mobility allows and your entire hip structure has to undergo posterior tilt to compensate. This puts the entire lower lumbar under sheer stress. It's actually pretty easy to diagnose in lifters without using weight. Just have them go ATG and watch the hips to see if they rotate.

Yep, all used to justify lifting less weight.  Hence zero progress usually.
