how do I kindly tell faggots to fuck off when they ask me to spot them for squat?
>do 185x10 front squats during crowded monday night.
>Suddenly get asked by 4 different dudes to spot them over the course of my workout.
People are amazed by the weirdest shit

That guy isn't even going parallel with 1 pl8 squat? I hope that picture wasn't taken at his deepest point holy shit
>>40693078
>needing a spotter for 1pl8 half squats
Holy shit

I go down all the way until the tendons between my legs and my genital area stretch and want to bounce. I'm below parallel but still not ATG.
Being currently on the SS gains train, should I keep adding 5 lbs every work-out and eventually my stretching will catch up to my lifting, or do I need to acquire the flexibility first?
>>40694679
they're probably just demonstration proper spotting form when squatting.

below parallel is fine. Keep adding weight and simultaneously work on flexibility.

ATG is for turbo autists. You should go below parallel that's all that's necessary. You're doing fine
>>40695591
But if I'm able to do ATG, shouldn't I do ATG? Am I not losing on the everything-that-isn't-a-quadriceps gains?
>>40695675
you physically can't go ATG with low bar squats.
if you do you lose all tension in your back and are just waiting to enter snap-city.

What if it's high-bar then?
Is one > the other?
>>40695591
You're a retard

Do what feels best for you.
Personally I love high bar, feels way more natural. Low bar usually let's you lift more.

I'm different, my body feels way more comfortable doing low bar, whenever I do highbar it feels not so great. But front squats feel good.
