Anything you did in particular?

motocross crashes, failing on too-heavy single rep squats and deadlifts in my teens. trying to pick up anything (motorbikes, cars etc.) that wasn't anchored down. and then heavy squatting and back work for 20 years after the damage was already done.  4 bulging discs and arthritis showed up on my last MRI.

I had to have back surgery a few years back, but I still squat, just not that heavy. Recently I have started squating after doing leg press, it feels weird, but I actually feel completely worked up at that point. I did it because I couldn't get in the squat rack so went to the leg press first. You have to be careful cause you fatigue quickly and I actually got stuck under the bar once.

I'll be 40 soon, and I see no reason why I wouldn't squat. If you don't have back or knee problems or something like that, age shouldn't really matter.

Still squat at 46, but only up to 315. I just do alot more reps and only twice a month. Much more presses and front squats now. I have a herniated L 4-5 that puts me on the floor when it acts up.
