The Squat Thread

[Taffin]

Good bbing squats bhanks.  You should really get on blood pressure medications though, before you go out like Don Youngblood

Absolutely - busting balls is one thing, but get a script for something to pull those numbers down!!

[deadz]

I alternate hacks and bb squats.

And not for the first time

front squats is an awesome exercise

Agreed.  My awful grammar notwithstanding LOL

One of the less talked about elements of free weight training is the satisfaction you can derive by moving from the 'shaky as fuck' beginnings, to the smooth, controlled and (feeling) powerful phase when you've got the hang of it after a while.  (Bro Science warning)  Front squats really helped me to 'feel' the muscle on the front of the thigh, whereas squats I felt all around the leg...

Prefer front squat as well. More emphasis on the quads and less on growing a table for an ass.

Hanky's kidneys are inside the cocoon and safely shielded away from any blood pressure damage.

Samesies. Always felt front squats more. 6 feet tall with proportionally longer legs made back squats always feel unnatural. Felt like I was squatting like Layne “Good Morning” Norton

Samesies. Always get front squats more. 6 feet tall with proportionally longer legs made back squats always feel unnatural. Felt like I was squatting like Layne “Good Morning” Norton

I've always preferred front squats.

With long legs it's hard to get good depth with a back squat.

Full depth front squats will build massive legs.

Hell yeah!

[chaos]

Was never a strong squatter despite short legs but prioritise form and depth over weigh always work up to around 2 and half plates per side for Olympic style paused reps

This is a squat!! Nice!

Front squats fuck my clavicles all up, left side swells up weird ever since I dumped 455.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

[Coach is Back!]

Ok I know they are a little high the squat rack with the mirror was taken so couldnt really tell. Also just switched to 275 for working sets last week. Depth and form will improve as I will stay here for a bit. Pussies will just criticize real men will post there own. Regardless this is 275x8

Nothing wrong with those squats, you’re going to parallel, good job.

[JackTheRipper]

I personally like squats but not super heavy.  I get better results with higher reps ,
Medium weights

Good squats Coach form is great back is straight vertical I notice your feet are pointed out a little and a smidge past shoulder width I may give that a try

[Henda]

Great squats Henda crazy depth hope you are feeling better

Thanks mate, feeling ok just waiting for a space at another hospital for angiogram and fit stent if needed then should be on the mend

[Henda]

Henda's form is great.  Good mobility.

Thank you mate

[Henda]

Henda that is a beautiful squat!
This is me squatting 600 a million years ago.
No I can’t do it now.We didn’t have video cameras with us at all times back then so this is the best I have.

Thanks mate thst 600 is insane, great photo

[Henda]

Brians got the right idea.

Keep squatting a little less weight, you will get better at squatting.
Also, great job Henda..

Good job, gentlemen.

Henda's squat is very deep, Olympic lifting levels.

Thanks guys

[Henda]

Hankins video didn’t work for me but I don’t squat so any squats are better than mine haha. Hendas squats look very deep, if I did that I would be stuck in the hole. Heavy weight cook, impressive.  Hope you are feeling better Henda.

I do bodyweight squat but that’s all I can handle haha as far as squats go.

Thanks mate getting better can’t wait to get out of hospital and back to normal doing fuck all every day is driving me mad haga

[Henda]

This is a squat!! Nice!

Thank you mate

Dougs explanations always make so much sense.

I have always said your low back will blow before you have got anywhere near fully stressing your quads in a squat.
