My sense of balance is fucked and I can't do exercises like deadlifts or squats without falling over. Can I just use smith machines for squats or substitute them witb the leg press? Is there a decent routine without deadlifts and squats?

Sorry about that. Go see a doctor.

Yes.

For lower body, no.
For upper body, just do chins, bench, dips and press like you would in a normal routine. Maybe you'll need to sub press for seated press though

Once you get up some weight on these exercises your body will balance you out breh. I used to fall backwards due to shit ankle mobility when trying to squat. Now the 2pl8 helps me counterbalance my own bullshit and my forms gotten pretty good.

shouldn't fixing that be a priority of yours ? aren't you falling over all the time? what are you going to do with that once you're old and frail?

ive got absolute shit mobility from sitting at a desk 12 hours a day for the past 10 years. i can do squats, but i need oly shoes plus a good 5-10 minutes of static stretching, and need to do low bar. it seriously took months of all this to just break parallel with 95lbs, but im repping 235 after a year of this shit.
it sucks that you have bad mobility but its no excuse to not work on improving it.

It doesn't affect my day-to-day live that much. I can't ride a bike and can't carry heavy stuff but just walking and stuff is fine. I would get it fixed but im too poor to get the surgery
