Form is extremely important with squats because you can easily mess your back and or knees up. I always use a weight belt no matter how much I'm squatting. [/B]

Boy, this is just what I wanted to hear. Just how easy is it to mess up your back and knees?

Curling:

It can be very easy. About three years ago I was squatting 315 three sets of 10 reps. On my warm up set with 185, I went down too fast and my right knee popped. Extremely light weight, I just didn't think I could get hurt. Now, I go real slow with squats. I don't go so heavy (I'm back up to 315 for 8-10 reps, but my form is so much better and I get a better burn from it) anymore.

Also, I do pause presses a moderate weight. (You know, take the weight down pause for 2 seconds and then bring it; it burns baby.) Do 10-12 reps, works very well. I ussually to two sets of these before getting into my regular sets.

LOL damn funny glad you started squats, funny shit.
As stupid as some of your posts are glad to see you around the board. You do bring up some interesting threads to read.

Why the hell are you wasting time squattting when you could be working that preacher bench Seriously good on ya you've finally come to see the light Funny enough heavy squats will probably aid your arm growth more than your 15 sets of curls as they stimulate gains all over,pretty soon you wont even curl any more,ok i'm getting ahead of myself here,baby steps, baby steps.

I suppose we cant have everything......a real man wouldnt use that pad though lol. Congratulations on finding one of the few worthwhile pieces of equipment and using it correctly.

Oh great I, got goaded I'm such a sucker for peer pressure no wonder I did so many drugs in my youth. But seriously it wasn't as bad as I remembered from jr high(been along time since I squated). And I don't care if ya'll call me a puss or not but I use that pad thing on the bar for my back. I mean they even give a blanket to pack horses so why shouldn't I have some sort of padding? Right?

Another squat question do all ya'll go past parallel(sp)? And do I need a weight belt for squats?

Hey, nobody ever said anything about actually putting weight on the bar.
