Hello that's me AMA
>he actually takes care of his body and avoids musculoskeletal injury
If you’re an adult male and hurt yourself squatting 65kg, you deserved it.
why?
because you didnt stretch and warm up
I warm up with the actual movement. Makes the most sense.
60, 80, 100 kg and then move on to the working set. If you can’t rep x 10 more than 65kg you are a woman and you should be hogging the abductor machine
This doesn't always work. Sometimes I'm so cold or stiff from the day before that I need to hit the elliptical for a minute then do a couple stretches/kicks to get ready. Then I warm up with a plate and go from there.
STFU Hubarman
Just say injury gay
20 minutes is a bit much for most people, sure, but he's warming up and being safe. As for 65kg, so what? Maybe he is relatively new? Maybe he injured himself, in or even outside the gym, and is doing a lighter weight, and that would explain his big focus on warming up and stretching? Maybe he has a health condition and 65kg is genuinely hard for him? Did you go into the gym and immediately squat your bodyweight? No. You had to start somewhere.
OP is a fag. This kind of cattiness you are displaying is also an extremely feminine behaviour. I hope you snap your back.
>t. pathetic retard that spends 20 minutes stretching and warming up just to do the most embarrassing 65kg squat
That's literally me, even the same weight, and I fucked my back anyway on the way up. Now my knee is randomly fucked, probably from leg extensions. Only 29 gonna kms
Felt my knee give out on the last rep of 80kg deads.
We're all gonna make it fren
Just can't progress with squats at all. And I think my hips are fucked, I never feel like my legs are properly aligned. I like squatting, but I think it's bad for me.
I did 70 kgs today 🙁 Good form though and deep, below paralell. Im not that strong
What does it matter to you what anyone else is doing or lifting? Mind your own business, gay.
Because they warm up inside the fucking rack, you cocksucker
As long as they actually use the rack for it's intended purpose it's all good.If you go to the squat rack to curl or row, no matter how serious you look, just gtfo.
Me
A month ago I did lowbar squats with 50kg and I have had this sore spot on one of my lower vertibreas ever since. I only feel it sometimes or when I press my thumb against it
My firm wasn't even dogshit...
I am a brittle man
Erector spinae got stretched too far?
a bit higher
Will this go away or haunt me for the rest of my life?
I started front squatting now and my back feels more comfortable
>Will this go away
NTA but do back extensions, dead hangs, core work, RDLs, maybe seated good mornings and jefferson curls. use appropriate loading and progressions that allow you to perform those movements without any pain, progress as your back adapts. you're welcome
Thanks
I've done some of those but haven't felt any pain as of yet, I think
Fuck that's literally me
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think some people put too much time into their warmups, for me it's usually just a bit of arm flailing, a couple squats w/o weights and maybe one warmup set if I'm going to do a compound, I can't be arsed to add extra 15 minutes spent on doing gay shit to my training, it's already taxing as it is
I've been lifting for many years and never had an injury directly related to lifting
Warm-up sets are where it's at but arm flailing and wrist wiggling is pretty good for upper body.
You can’t do this when you actually lift heavy you will snap your shit
Fuck you op
My 3x6 65kg squat is in PERFECT form, thank you very much. I added 1kg to the left side of the barbell last week, tomorrow I'll put another on the right.
test
Not everyone is powershitter like you, he's probably in better shape than you.
Post body.
>stretching before lifting
waste of time, stretch after. warm up with the movement itself
lmao that's me.
I've got (slight) lower back problems, and every time I try to do back squats, I end up feeling it, so what was meant to be a warmup set for 10 reps, will end up being 3 shitty reps and then I pack up and leave in shame and misery.
OP was (kinda) based for once
Unironically you should only need a dedicated mobility routine before squatting if you have the most dogshit leverages possible, otherwise you should instead build intrinsic mobility in all the required areas (hips ankles etc) so that you can get straight into a deep squat without any prior work. You can still do a mobility routine before squatting if you don't have the mobility yet but you should have the end goal of getting enough mobility to where you no longer need a crutch.
Now obviously you should still warm up with the actual movement but this is a nobrainer
Only powershitters or fat fetishists or wrestlers need to squat more than 160kg, prove me wrong.
I don't need to prove you wrong. You can just keep modifying squats to make them harder (high bar/front/ssb instead of low bar, slow eccentric, pause, 1.5 reps, heel elevation, higher reps, etc). If you can do all of those and still squat 160kg you will have absurdly big legs lol
Also squat ATG instead of to parallel, can't believe I forgot to mention that lol
If you do ATG might as well hold the asian squat for isometrics.
No one goes to the gym to please you, OP. They're taking care of themselves.
keeping track of other men's workouts is embarrassingly feminine and cringe tbh
This is literally me... Do you have a camera at my gym ?
Captcha: GG MY GA
Listen. I'm in my 30s now my body will break if I don't stretch before doing literally anything
That was me today , except front squats
Gain with no injuries
I dont stretch, i do one 50kg warmup set then squat 100kg for 12 u moron
Wanna know what the best warm up for a squat is?
A squat.
this, i always warm up by doing lighter versions of the exercise
my max squat is 55kg AMA
I love it when I see roidheads seething in the background waiting for me to finish my 60kg squats lol
We pay the same for the membership, therefore we're equal
>stretching before the rep
wtf do people really do this?
the warm up is all the stretching you need
strength and stretching are actually antithetical to each other
I don't even see warm up as stretching but just priming the nervous system to the movement you're going to preform
then I jump into my triples, then doubles, and maybe a 1rm depending on how i feel
Reminder that the guy gay op is talking about will still be lifting at 96 years old while gays op would die from a heart failure at 56 years.
