To Squat Or Not To Squat

[adidamps2]

I've never seen or heard of anyone doing this. Actually I did see one guy but he treated them more as a deadlift variation.

i dont do them anymore because all i did was remove flesh from the back of my calves/achilles tendon area...was bad enough to scrape my shins up deading and then that..bah i'll stick to straight sqts and walking lunges.

The squat works approx 200 muscles. Your body is composed of about 600 muscles. That means that squats have the potential to work 1/3 of your muscles. The fuck I'd pass that one up

Hey Pinneaple, when I first started I passed up the squat because I didn't like the fact that I could fall, injure myself, etc. So, what I did was start squatting the bar, just to get the form sunk in my brain. Eventually, I was able to work my way up. I definitely was seeing results in my quads, ass, calfs, etc. Now, about a year and a half later, I have worked my way up to 270 lbs and I freaking love the squat. Yeah, you can get away w/o squatting, but why not try it out for a bit and see what everyone is raving about?

i fractured my back squating or fucking in the shower...i'm going to go with squating...but i was using a ton of weight and probably pushed myself further than i should have... so i plan on staying away from them for a while
