that sucks, my knees where fucked up for almost a year. I didnt squat an ounce of weight for 8 months. Ive been back for about 2 months squatting now and it feels great. Whats going on with your knees?

Fuck you Trizio... You are a Hoss!! Lately I have been hitting higher rep sets. No need for me to hit maxes anymore. I can hit 405 for a deep triple with a belt any day of the week though. I got 3 whites with 525 in single ply gear in an APF meet 3 years ago. I was a very light 198lber.

Not sure to be honest...nothing ever popped or anything, just suddenly got a sharp pain right above my knee area...almost in between the knee and the quad. It doesnt hurt to run, or play basketball or anything but dull aches sometimes just sitting at work. Bizzare, so Ive just been laying off squatting for now. Definitely sucks though, I hate not working legs.

That's awesome.

Right now (no gear) I can do 365 x 1 and 225 x 20 at 198lbs.

Next cycle I'll be going for 400.

i squat very wide now and it takes most of the pressure off your knees and transfers it to your hips. Its more of a PLing movement, but if you want to squat you should give this a try. Its very different than BB squats, but its a squat non the less. there is NO WAY i could squat if i had to do them close.
