90 Deg is King for strength, muscle mass, & power as well as joint health & athletic performance. Here’s legend powerlifter & powerlifting coach & owner of Elite FTS Dave Tate hitting 90 degree squats.

Many of the top powerlifters over the years have relied on partials & 90 degree movements to build enormous levels of strength & size. Even Westside Barbell did. Just to remind you, Westside Barbell founded by the late & legendary Louie Simmons has become synonymous with freakish strength as they produced some of the strongest humans on the planet. Besides breaking numerous world records in powerlifting many of these lifters had insane levels of dense muscle mass on their frame. And yes, much of their training revolved around 90 deg joint angles & partials. They did use an ultra wide squat stance to reduce tibial inclination in order to lift the heaviest weights that satisfied powerlifting competition rules. However that means their parallel squats were essentially 90 deg joint angles. For my athletes we also use 90 deg joint angles on squats however with narrower stances so it transfers more to sports. However there’s also greater tibial inclination meaning that 90 deg joint angles occurs roughly 30 deg above parallel. Interesting side note Louie claimed his top lifters could deep ATG squat 500 lbs easier than any Olympic lifter because they built so much strength & muscle from 90 deg. My athletes can also produce more force in deeper positions than those who train deep.

Leg Day Sets & Reps: • Barbell Squats: 4x8-10 • Leg Press: 4x12-15 • Barbell Romanian Deadlifts (RDLs): 3x10-12 • Seated Leg Curl: 3x12-15 • Hamstring Curl (Machine): 3x12-15 💡 Tips & Targets: 1️⃣ Barbell Squats: The king of leg exercises! Targets quads, glutes, and hamstrings. Keep your chest up and knees tracking over your toes. Go below parallel for full range of motion. 2️⃣ Leg Press: Focus on pushing through your heels to engage your quads and glutes. Avoid locking your knees at the top. 3️⃣ Barbell RDL: A killer for hamstrings and glutes. Keep a slight bend in your knees and focus on hinging at the hips. 4️⃣ Seated Leg Curl: Isolate your hamstrings with a slow, controlled tempo. Squeeze at the top of each rep for max contraction. 5️⃣ Hamstring Curl (Machine): Builds strength and definition in your hamstrings. Adjust the machine for a comfortable range of motion. 🔥 Remember: proper form > heavy weight. 👉 Follow for more workouts, tips, and inspiration to crush your fitness goals! #legdayworkout #quads #hamstrings #glutes #strengthtraining #fitnessmotivation #workoutvideos #fitfam #legworkout #gymroutine #squatlife #fitnessjourney #gymmotivation #legdayeveryday #workoutoftheday
