Science based lifting....save me! Help me Coach Greg and Dr Mike!
>>77167477Hearing about this shit made me stop squatting and just start using the hack squat machine insteadIm still a noob but if this fucking guy with tree trunk thighs and decades of experience, who's way more /fit/ than i am, could get so injured squattingn, no fucking way am i going to invest into squatting then, just hard sets in a hack machine thanks
>>77167539you can get injured on machines too
>>77167539Hack squats can still fuck you up. Pretty much the only heavy quads exercises that are safe for your back are belt squats and leg extensions.
>>77167551>>77167554ok but the chances of fuckery is infinitely smaller compared to free weight squatting, my point stands
>>77167554How are zerchers? I hate having the bar resting on top of my spine, but I don't have access to a belt squat machine
>>77167539Yeah hack squat for me feels even worse on lower belt than normal squat.Do belt squat machines or leg press
>>77167605Slightly less risk, but the base problem remains: you have hundreds of pounds on top of you creating stress on a hinged posterior chain. In an ideal form, this is no issue as you are mostly upright. But if shit goes south, it goes south real quick. Dude is right, belt squats completely remove the stress on your spine. That's the only way with squats.>Disclaimer: I am not afraid to squat and have been heavy squatting for decades and have no plans to stop.
>>77167477this nigga had a nosejob right? each time i see him i think of michael jackson
>>77167692anti-Semitism
>>77167477He let his lower back relax didn't he? With legs like that what's even his vertical?
>>77167477It's honestly deadlifts for true 1rm that'll send you to snap city, atg squats bulletproof that aspect. I remain by far the smartest person to ever grace this website.
>>77167477Who?
>>77167539This guy was starving and dehydrating himself while also squatting to prepare for a bodybuilding show, you're not gonna ack yourself eating semi-right and aquatting sub 3pl8 with belt and safeties.
>>77167477>OP is not doing rehab dayIts like you arent even trying to make it, OP.
>>77167707It's /ourguy/ Will Tennyson
>>77168030>Will TennysonCheers anon, I knew I had seen his little pig face somewhere and wanted to look up the lift.. If he didn't have some big fat gorrillia trying to lift him up, and had been doing low bar, he could have ditched the bar no problem. Also >doing a four plate squat with chains on after pre-fatiguing himself with heavy leg press What the fuck did he think would happen?
>>77167707Roid Tranny ben 10
>>77167539Just do BSS instead that's all you need you can trust me I'm Bulgarian.
>>77168077>doing a four plate squat with chains on after pre-fatiguing himself with heavy leg pressIronic, he made a video about Mike Mentzer but couldnt save himself
>>77167539Yeah eventually squatting will fuck up your back if you're pushing it, especially if you're tall. It doesn't matter how solid your core is, 400+ lbs sheer load on your spine will destroy a disc.
>>77167477>He thinks it's muh squat
>>77168107Im 6'1'', 46 years old and currently squat 190kg for three and have been lifting for thirty years. What's your next shit opinion please?
>>77168146>30 years for 4pl8 and some change The fuck ? Respect the grind tho but that's pathetic
>>77168162yeah right? haha imagine not squatting 2000 lbs natty after 6 months of lifting
>>771681466'1" isn't tall geezer and I squat more than you.
there is 0 reasons to squat (or deadlift) unless you wanna lift for strength or for competition. if your goal is just size and you keep doing those retarded lift (especially if you don't have the body type for) you're gonna have your lifting career ended soon>inb4 "i've been doing squat for 10 years"
>>77167539He cycled off roids and then continued to bomb his system with way too much protein and his shit got brittle Also, his legs aren't big lmao
>>77168146Based and oldpilled
>>77168176You've barely broken 4pl8 after 30 years, that's 3 years at most for the shittiest of anorexic genetics, your over exageration doesn't negate the polar opposite that is you spinning your wheels and bragging about mediocre numbers
>>77168247>legs aren’t bigWhat’s it like living in a different reality
>>77168293Most gym lifters never even squat 3 plate. Go the fuck outside.
>>77168301Look at his thin girly neck and frail femur Some people are simply never destined to pack any amount of muscle past ottermode All these guys on roids who still look like slappeable nerdsNo wonder he wrecked his shit, that's what you get for swimming against the current
>>77168309My estimations say most gym goers suck 5 in penises why dont you choke on a 10in one and die
>>77168162>currently Why would I be wanting to lift more? I run and I climb. More weight on the bar - more weight on me - harder or impossible getting up a crag or run fifteen miles over the fells. >>77168293Not sure who you thought you were replying to but it wasn't me LOL this fucking thread >dont squat you will surely die>old man squats four plates for reps >you are shit Never fucking change /fit/, never change.
>>77168314Kys faggot retard
Could lifting had saved him?
>>77168162Dumb nigger. The entire point of squatting is to keep muscle on your frame. He's 46 and is still squatting heavy. This will benefit him majorly into his 50/60/70s. Get the fuck off this board faggot.
>>77167477Fucking kek
>>77168204what are you supposed to do for legs instead
>>77168146Based>>77168162I'm intoxicated atm and can't tell if this anon is retarded or immature. Can't be arsed to spend any more time trying to figure it out either. I hope for your sake you get better 'cause hell awaits with that attitude
>>77168293if your squat isnt going up 1000 lbs a year then what are you even doing
>>77167477kid seems pretty dumbass despite being a fitness influencer. Theres dudes in third world doing manual labor heavier then his warmup squat but they least have the brains to brace properly.
>>77168293Holy shit all the coping DYEL replies
>>77167477Diamond Gym CrippleMaxxing Influencers
>>77168162>99.99th percentile for his age>patheticlet me guess, you have a better than 420x3 squat that you're dying to share with us?
>>77169379The fact that you keep replying again and again to the same post shows how insecure you are and how much you know that it's pathetic to spin your wheels for 30 years for mediocre numbers. You're probably 300lbs too since you conveniently left out your weight
>>77169438that was my first post in this thread kek, it turns out a lot of people think you're retarded. i'll take that as a no btw

>>77169480Sorry you're so upset, old man
>>77167539Wasnt he doing some stupid shit at the negro gym and that contributed to his injury?
>>77168301>Guys I'm totally nattyLmao
>>77168454gem
>>77168301
>>77167477>breaks his back from a squatLmfao zoomie fags will continue to shill that shit because they like training to sit on dicks
>>77169438LOL that wasnt me you fucking spastic.
>>77172053Vladi has been blasting for many years. You are mentally ill.
>>77172053
>>77169180You have to understand anon only breaking 4pl8 squat after 30 YEARS of lifting is actually very impressive, no I will not give you my weight but I am 6'1
>>77167539Any amount of significant & consistent axial spine loading will eventually result in injury. It's 100% guaranteed over the lifetime of a serious lifter. This is 1 reason why I call human intellect a double edged sword. We invented the wheel barrow and shit long before evolution could select for sturdier spinal columns. There simply were not enough opportunities where ancient man would be lifting a ton of weight, often enough, in a really stupid fucking way, so that they would throw their backs out & die before procreating. So, no, just cause the human body can tolerate a thing, does not make it ok to do ad infinitum under any conditions.
>>77172452We also invented machinery to accommodate our shortcomings. If only most gyms had more leg presses and hack squats instead of fucking treadmills, bikes and squat racks collecting dust.
