Spend the day improving your performance on the Low Bar Back Squat with Coach Jeremy Eaton.

The seminar will focus on good execution of the Squat, the foundational exercise of the Starting Strength method, along with the practical aspects of performing the lift, and how it fits into a training program. Participants will spend lots of time on the platform receiving coaching and instruction on the squat in a small group setting. Through the process, attendees will learn the hallmarks of a properly executed squat and how it should look and feel when it is performed correctly.

After the practical session, we will return for a discussion of programming and how to identify and correct common technical problems. The camp will wrap up with a question and answer session. Whether you are just starting out with strength training, struggling with the basics of the lifts, or looking to polish your technique and understanding of these movements, you will come away with valuable insights and experience to benefit your training. Attendance will be capped at eight to allow for individualized instruction.

If you get a ticket and cannot attend the seminar, PLEASE CANCEL the ticket in your eventbrite account or send an email to so someone else can attend. Attendees who get tickets and no-show will be banned from future events. Thank you for understanding.


What to Bring

Proper weightlifting shoes are highly recommended. They increase stability, control, and consistency in all of the lifts and should be considered essential equipment if barbell training is a priority. If participants use weightlifting belts, they are encouraged to bring them. Please also wear knee-high socks, or sweat pants to allow the barbell to contact the shins without causing abrasions.
