Squat. Every. Day.
Yessir.
squat once every two weeks, actually.
>>76570105How strong, do I need to be to start barbell squats? I just started working out 4 months ago. I'm mainly doing dumbbell squats for my legs.
>>76570200there is no strength requirement, even if you can only do the bar you should train it early on to get used to the form and feel
>>76570105I injured myself squatting like last year and every time I try working up to my old working weight I get the same deep pain in my right hip. I never even hit a 2 plate squat before hurting myself and ending my squatting career. feelsbadman
>>76570105Nah that's way too much, even if it's lower intensity and volume.Work everything every other day.
>>76570105My fucking knees hurt from spots. I can't take off my socks without pain.
>>76570204Is the barbell not loaded, usually 45 pounds? Doesn't that mean my trap muscles need to be able to hold that weight?
>>76570522Do some facepulls before your squats. Nothing heavy, just to get the upper back a bit of a pump. Also start with a relatively wide-grip on the squats and slightly move more close-grip the more you progress in sets.
>>76570698>facepullsI see you have to use a cable contraption for this, some kind of rope handles.How much do those weigh? How do I prepare for lifting those?
ive been doing front squats 2x / week
>>76570105Squat and leave bro
>>76570105Thats such a kino pic.
>>76570929Bet it is for you, Adam
>>76570976You bet! *passes away*
>>76570105>EverydayThat's why you don't grow.
>>76570105Too low. Will destroy your knees and ligaments. Only 90 degrees range of motion is needed.
>>76571054>he fell for the 90 degree meme
Yeah i do goblet or kettlebell squats only though. Add more reps too
>>76570105Already do, in one form or another.Back squats, front squats, squats to recover from a snatch or clean.
>>76570698Which position is good? Low bar or high bar squat? For beginners?
>>76571956I'd go for the high bar but you have to figure it out what suits you best
>>76570327Maybe you should try piriformis push ups to get that area stronger so it won't get injured
Do I need to do leg machine exercises, if I do barbell squats?
>>76573651You don't need to do anything.
>>76573711metaphysically or just in the gym?
>>76573711What do you mean?
>>76573733Both.>>76573770Free will.
>>76573771Makes sense. Exercise the muscles of morality.
>>76570327If you're getting random pains, it means the weight is too heavy. Stop falling for the meme and lower the weight.
