Episode notes
Improve Overhead Squat With Specific Drills
- Practice the actual overhead squat and build mobility rather than rely on shortcuts.
- Sonny recommends snatch-grip behind-the-neck press, snatch-grip work, sock presses and ankle mobility to keep chest up and reach depth.

- Pick a sport you enjoy beyond lifting to stay motivated and balanced.
- The Lean Machines each suggested alternatives: rugby, boxing, table tennis, snowboarding, basketball and Formula One as personally preferred options.
