10 reasons NOT to barbell squat - prepare for meltdowns by the hard men

[mazrim]

now and then

dont wanna get them too big

Those are very good legs. I agree about leg size. Wouldn't get them really any bigger then what you have them. I would love mine to be even 3/4 that size

[SquatsRule]

I like the Zane leg blaster but not for $650.00 

I know. A little expensive. I've tried to get the gym owner to buy one for years. The best I could get was a safety squat bar.

Making fun of someone's physical appearance is something an adolescent does.

I remember when I was going through puberty...

Buttfucking homo lol who is doing the melting down here. And you post pictures of people out of anger , ultimate melting..

And you change dying to sick in order to lighten the seriousness of the kids condition , because it is you , now why else would you do that. Stop the madness.

You're nothing but a tyrannical bully.

big quads just make your package looks smaller = fail

Counterpoint:  big legs push your genitals out, making the "bulge" more prominent in clothes.

a lot better than you since he's not a deformed gollem

Halo when you mentioned your hips cracking and stuff is that a sign of hip impingement? I notice the right side of my hip pops too if I bring my leg up high enough and back down, but Im not sure if its from being a breaststroker when I was swimming. The kick puts a lot of pressure on the knees and hips 

I also was on a program squatting 3 times a week but I think I felt better doing that tbh

Hip impingement Brah checking in, I actually had surgery to fix my left side 2 months ago before I ended up like King Ronnie or Dave Tate in the metal hip club.

you get popping, cracking, maybe pain, catching, cant rotate your leg in if its bad

could be a labrum tear , or both - hip impingement makes you much more likely to tear a labrum

[Radical Plato]

Ronnie did them. Thread restarted.

Didn''t Ronnie just have a double hip replacement.

I didnt call you a homo, I called you a faggot.

And are you prince dianabols doctor? do you know the prognosis? halo has said that he is sick, not that he is dying. you're a straight up piece of dog shit for even bringing that up out of spite.


tyrannical bully, oh brother. its the internet. I would never use things in real life against you here... i bust your balls over things you say on here, not how much of a cuckold you are in real life.

I bet you would be the kind of guy to hire black dudes off craigslist to gangbang your wife while you watch jerkin' your kid-dick.

I believe one major reason that non-squatters often hate on guys who squat is that squatting when trained in a serious manner, being with heavy weights, legit form and on a proper program, well is about as challenging a training experience as one can put himself thru and because of that some do get the "hardcore" stigma to them but rightfully so, I mean if you're going to put yourself thru that then you have earned the that right.

[DanM]

Which leads to many of the lazy bodybuilder types feeling insecure and butt hurt because then their notion of being hardcore aka wearing certain clothing or grunting excessively while doing tricep kick backs is then diminished and lessened.

I like the squat because it works the whole body as a single unit in a natural way.

If you are concerned about injuries and joints etc, you can use lighter weights by making the squat harder such as placing the bar high on the traps, narrow stance, pausing at rock bottom, no resting at the top, high reps, low rest between sets, pyramiding down in weight, etc.

Even with light weight, most squatters don't know the right way to do the lift, nor how to work mobility programming into their routines. I didn't hire a professional coach until I was in my 30th year of lifting and what a difference! That said, I am still injuring myself every 6 weeks with squats, so I have all but abandoned them.

is there any scientific evidence that we need compound movements at all

wouldnt your legs look the same with leg extensions and leg curls?

who dares to question ?

Yes they would if you did them intensely enough, the quads extend the leg and the leg bicep pulls the ankle to your arse.

Thats their function, do these movements under resistance and they will grow.

phenomenal squatter but let's be honest

platz is fucking crazy

The guy has a strange personality yes but i have improved my squat tecnique a lot with his advice concerning lower back verticality. Feet facing outwards and more stance thand shoulder width.

Fuck off.

Great post

Watch Coach and Co try and demolish it.

I blew out my lower back a few times trying to squat deep and heavy.
Guess what? It never helped give me obtain bigger, better legs.
Combined with heavy deadlifts, squats gave me a damaged low back and permanent arthritis in my sacrum/sacroiliac area .
3 yrs ago, after many painful  years of squats, I dropped the exercise for good . I am making BETTER leg gains with other safer movements.
