Being a former powerlifter..(turned bodybuilder)..It seems like I hold a squat clinic in the gym every Tuesday.....and deadlifts every Friday......so many questions on form and technique.....it boggles my mind how many people have no idea how to squat or dead.....and I don't mean " 24 Hour Fitness Squats" that end up looking like hyperextensions....I am talking about balls on the floor in the basement squats....SQUATS I LOVE EM......even after acl replacement......PEACE

Started doing legs again after a 4 yr layoff last week. Sure don't miss the feeling of being nauseous and feel like puking afterwards. Didn't do too bad i must say. Go almost all the way down where my butt is 4-5 inches fromthe floor. Hit 275 x3 , which i think is good after a 4 yr layoff. Max back then was 375. 100 lbs to go......

If you aren't doing squats and deads you shouldn't bother going to the gym.

Squatting is by far the most effective exercise for total growth. Heavy squats help the body release growth hormone. When people ask me what I do to grow my biceps I tell them squats! They're usually confused by that but it's true.

I hate leg press loaders..

guys who put 14 plus plates a side and move it 5 inches. Makes me sick. I know damn well they couldn't squat four plates a side....If my club had a decent leg press machine, I'd use it along with squats, but the leg press machine is ancient..so I dont' have a choice.

Squat Day is PAYDAY. That's it. That's the day I know I'm gonna cause some growth.

LONG LIVE SQUATS!!

Just work on your flexibility then... you really should anyways if you cant even get your arms back far enough to hold onto the bar.

How so? Just do squats with no hands on? Sort of like floating? I am so inflexible it sucks. Even when I trained 6 years in martial arts, stretching almost everyday and I was still not very flexible. But better then I am now.
