OD,

Sorry, I can't address your whole post right now (have family coming in tonight), but I do want to ask a couple of questions before I spend time on a response.

What "stabilizing muscles" are you referring to that a squat does not address?

Would you please describe the "old school" squat to the best of your ability given the experience you have?


Answering these two questions would clear up any conclusions I might draw from your statement.
