Wisconsin strength and conditioning coach Brady Collins’ signature ‘Squat Fest’ event took place on Friday, as the 2024 Wisconsin Badgers football team had, in essence, a collective max-out squat day with the media in attendance.
That, and it also included a new logo, shirts for the entire team and an extensive amount of production work within the building.

It was the second-annual edition of the event at Wisconsin after Collins followed head coach Luke Fickell to the program after the 2022 football season. Collins began ‘Squat Fest’ back at Cincinnati, evolving it each year from just a max-out day in the weight room to a circled date and event on the calendar as summer conditioning work drew to a close.
Wisconsin football’s social media team and media members in attendance all shared extensive highlights of the 2024 edition of the event:
