Complete Muscle Building System www.acceleratedmusculardevelopment.com ORIGINAL POST http Cossack Squats with 60lbs of Chains What are Cossack Squats? Cossack squats are done by performing a lateral lunging motion. The toes can be slightly pointed out or straight forward during the movement. The lifter or athlete will move their feet outward to a sumo or slightly WIDER than sumo position. From their the torso is braced and forced outward as the lifter / athletes moves to the right / left. The knee moves forward tracking over the toes and on the straight leg the toe comes up. Settling into the bottom position will depend upon your hamstring / glute flexibility and hip / ankle mobility. The lifter / athlete can stand straight back up (easier) or slide across to the other side (harder). The slide technique keeps constant tension on the legs.

Use KB or DB and hold them in front of your chest goblet style.
My gym isn’t hardcore. We got no chains.
Awesome Joe!
LOVE this movement brotha…started doing them again after seeing this video!
MR. T would be jealous
damn…this is a great idea!
Thanks brother.
Smitty, I have done this stretch in the past but never with added weight. Thats is what I meant by learning from you. You guys are the Originals brother, I give you much credit and respect.

I LOVE your adivce/workouts, i’m in high school and these really would help me improve in sports!
Mike,
I appreciate the support, but it is definitely not something I came up with. This mobility / stretching movement has been around for a long time. We just added some weight.
Definitely. Personally, I would opt for a dumbbell held in front of you at chest level.
Smitty you never cease to surprise me.
hey jim, do you think i could do this with a barbell or a dumbell?
SWEET Smitty, another original move I have not seen before and now learn from you.
Thanks.
thanks i appreciate it
I always thought this was for stretching only. I didn’t know it helps build muscle. I am going to try this today.
My ass literally touches the ground in cossack squats. Says something about my mobility, don’t it?
I believe they are 5/8 purchased from elitefts . com
Whats the link size on that chain?
you could do them bodyweight only to warm-up for squats and deadlifts or you could overload (or just do them with your bodyweight) them after your primary movement.
It really doesn’t matter which way you want to do it bro.
would this be done before or after a squat/deadlifht?
