Expert British Strength Coach Said That Squats Aren’t Important

[Noodles03]

This British gentleman who is a creditable strength coach claimed that squats aren’t important. Now I’m not sure who to believe in.

Squats are an awesome tool...probably the best...but if you cant do squats, and instead go heavy on the leg press, will you still build big strong legs? Yeah, you will.

There is no "you must do this movement to succeed" movement. Some are superior to others (like squats over a leg press) but you cant tell me a genetic freak football player wouldnt be a genetic freak football player with lightning speed if he traded squats for leg press.

I won't read this, but I'm sure he's either a dumbass or he is quite specific in how he feels about squats.

Would probably help if you provided a source so we could actually read or watch exactly what he said.

Guys, the source is in the OP. That's world-renowned S&C (scritchies and cuddling) expert Baron Thaddius M Woofleton. Surprised more people don't recognise him.

Squats train the entire lower body through the largest range of motion. No way in hell are they unimportant.
