    Re: Squatting

    Nice to hear Chesty...although I am going to move this thread into the training section. Keep working those squats...try doing 190-200 bodyweight squats in a row, those are fun and a great warm-up.

    Re: Squatting

    squats are getting better. it's amazing how the back surgery fixed things. I never expected this good a recovery. why my doc c gets 140K for the surgery. I'm sure between anesthesiologist, nurses hospital, etc the surgery was at least $250,000!.

    im just cautious in my lifts now paying real close attention to my body and stopping if anything feels even the slightest off. 10 years ago I would have ignored it and it took 13 orthopedic surgeries for me to catch on, lol. now I'm 98% and I'm not gonna screw that up.

    I only squat in Olympic shoes......in my Nike Romaleos. I also overhead press and bench in them. The difference is greater than night and day.

    I have tight Achilles tendons and loose ankles so I squat in either combat boots or hiking boots. but with back fixed I seem to be more balanced than ever!

    I never knew they made such a thing... Just an old-fashioned pair of converse for me for squat day...

    Personally I like DLs over squats in general. Concentrating on perfect form.
