>introduce basic squats at low weight into routine>herniate disc
>>76658170Did you inform yourself on the cues that come with a squat before you did your first squats? It's always important to get a good baseline and keep improving
>>76658170>doesnt practice good form>is an idiot>hurts himself>why did 4chan do this to me
Lifting has natural filters for low IQ people so they get out of the gym and go back to McDonalds. Squats are one of them.
>>76658170>*squat*>ruins your life
>>76658196See >>76658190 if getting fit was for everyone everyone would do it, however you need a white IQ to be fit.
>>76658170>at low weight>herniate discYou probably jumped straight to 135lb, didn't you?
Is the trick to squats just to tuck your lower ribs in bros? I'm still fucking up my lower back on them even on high bar.
>>76658230the trick is to do any other exercise for back and legs
>>76658206he clearly said>basic squats at low weightso goblet squats with whatever baby kettlebells the gym has, surely
>>76658170Atg builds lower spinal stabilty, going super heavy(wide stance toes out lower rom) skips out this step.
>>76658230Stand under bar, feet a little in front of the bar, Hands close as you can manage on the bar without feeling any discomfort, Push and slide the bar to your upper traps, Take a breath, flex your abs, pull arms slightly closer underneath the bar, hips forward slightly, push the bar from the rack. two steps backward, feet shoulder-widt, toes slightly out, chest up hips sllightly straight, take big breath and flex abs again, sit down in a chair (dont lean too forward), go down till hamstrings and calves connect (atg), immediately (kinetic energy is still in your legs) push up with legs away from the ground up to the ceiling and push with your traps against the bar. You can now breath again.
>>76658190Yes. Powersharting is a filter, only dumb people perform powersharting.
>>76658291Thanks bro, I'll take a screenshot and consult it next time I squat after my lower back's healed up. Love u man.
>>76658270That's a stretch, and even less likely to happen with even lower weight.My bet is this guy has been watching roid trannies and reading /fit/ and thought he could do lmao1pl8.
>>76658204>wasnt born White>ruins your life
>>76658317Don't be embarrassed to only use the bar or tiny plates when you squat again. Learning good technique on the squat is paramount above weights lifted. This is what i wrote from memory, but even better is obviously to watch loads of videos. some exampleshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-Do_xR15IEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yEQOYxR6zIhttps://youtu.be/7V1zszcmwg0?si=4RpVwMGVzFQBjZZA
>>76658351I'll definitely take a look. Thanks for being so helpful, I'm hoping to become a great squatter cause I think I've got good leverages for it. This should be the start of great squat gains :)
>>76658291>Push and slide the bar to your upper trapsEvery time i do squats the bar lands on my vertebra instead of traps, causing massive pain, what am i doing wrong?
>>76658374Your traps really should be squished together to form a good cushion for the bar. Perhaps doing some face pulls before squats is a good way to get a little pump going in that area so you can use them more effectively for the squat. You're basically pulling your shoulder blades to eachother to create the traps cushion. Also try keeping a close grip on the bar as much as possible. A little soreness in the vertebra after squats is not unusual in the beginning. I had it too and was wondering if i did it wrong.
>>76658170No you didnt. Fuck off.
so how much weight was on the bar?was your core tight the whole time?
Humans were never meant to squat with heavy loads.Nice job, retard.
>>76658170I did get sciatica after a squat session once. Straight leg raises hurt like hell.I didn't do deadlifts and squats for one week and it passed.Anyways, be more careful with your form and brace properly. Do the McGill big three before heavy squats and deadlifts and always wear a belt beyond 50% of your 1RM.
>>76658206I did squats for the very first time at 110 pounds after reading Starting Strength. With a Smith machine, nonetheless. I was perfectly fine afterwards. I think this idiot has convinced himself something like 200 pounds is a "low weight" due to sites like strengthstandards or symmetricstrength.
>>76658478You start with bodyweight
>>76658691You put your bodyweight on the bar? Bodyweight means without any weight except for your body, dumbass
>tfw only do pistol squatsFeels pretty good
>>76658230Yes but also keep ypu pelvis tucked and sit down instead of pushing hips back. And keep a lifted,proud chest
>>76658803Pistol squats train legs and glutes with big load, but there is little load on spine, so you won't damage your back. Pistol are superior.
Pistol squats are better than squats.
>>76658328none of us was born "White"being "White" began a few years ago in response to some other people being "Black"kill yourself
>>76661724>none of us was born "White">seething brownoid
>>76661712Tell that to my atrophied legs after 2 months of vacation doing exclusively pistol squats for lower body training
>>76658170Good to see you again, buddy
>>76658351Nta but I low bar squat, should I switch to high bar? Currently running candito and my max is around 120kg
>>76661813sir, don't do low/high just do what suits your anatomy
>>76661741You should have done weighted pistol squats.
