neck yourselves haters, the form is pretty terrible in this video but I know all about getting a little gritty to hit a max. If he can put up 500 with this faggy leaned in danger stance he can probably rep 450 with tight glutes and good posture.

>>42299700
But I thought twink was getting better, his squat was so much more beautiful last time I checked in

Did he start cutting again or something? this thread is sad man...

>>42299791
Gotta herniate your disc while preparing for a comp to confuse the body, right babe?

>>42299791
That's not a max, twink squats sets of 5 like that. He got better for a little while but apparently he's shit again, probably started cutting again because he's pretty much anorexic.

OP what are your other numbers; diddly, bench, ohp?

>>42299828
Notice how he's not actually using his back at all? It's all knee and hip extension, do that. And also improve your core strength so your back doesn't collapse at any point.

Lower back strength is nice at all, but it's strictly for stabilization and should not move at all for the duration of the lift.

>>42299838
>That photo isn't me I was recording the video you dips.

But he's using his back and core muscles to keep the weight from crushing his back?

>>42299929
Isometrically, there is no extension going on there.

The reason you have back pain is that you are performing back extension.

Listen faggot. Your body was designed to squat in good form since you learned to walk as a toddler. Overtime, after unnaturally sitting in chairs since pre-k, office jobs, taking a shit, driving, watching tv, sitting in front of a computer, etc...your body's mechanism were morphed into a different state. It has nothing to do with your body proportions. To undo this, you need to do dynamic stretches,foam roll, nd strengthen your core daily. I would estimate it would take at least 2-5 months to resume to your natural squatting state if done correctly and consistently.

>>42300273
>>42300275
>>42300280

Master the two step walkout and you too can rerack by falling forward.

>>42300295
is this really teh case though?

i was sedentary for most of my teenage years, and started lifting at 23 or something. i spent all my waking time in front of the computer and i have very shitty athletic genes

all it took was squatting to fix my issues, not stretches etc.

i'm very mobile & flexible naturally though but still. i think actually squatting is the best way to squat correctly

>>42300295
>>42300318

to add, i think the core part is most important thing that you lose when you're sedentary

you can get away with a lot of shit if you still know how to brace and maintain your spine, but if not, you'll probably injure yourself the first few workouts

Not at all it's complete and utter fucking bullshit largely controlled by genetics, if what he's suggesting was the case, everyone could eventually learn to run like Usain by TRYING REALLY HARD!!!

Though it IS true that everyone could improve their base mobility to an extent, just like you probably won't be able to jump your max potential vertical without actually practicing jumping
>>42300297

>>42300295
>Your body was designed to squat in good form since you learned to walk as a toddler
That's not true. The reason toddlers can squat so well is in fact, due to their tiny proportions. With such torsos and short legs, a toddler can get into a squatting position with relative ease.

>Overtime, after unnaturally sitting in chairs since pre-k, office jobs, taking a shit, driving, watching tv, sitting in front of a computer, etc...your body's mechanism were morphed into a different state.
The fuck does this mean, are you fucking implying that body proportions morph to your lifestyle while growing? I hope not.

>It has nothing to do with your body proportions
But a literal retard could see that a person with incredibly long legs has not only more movement to perform in the squat, but also more trouble getting weight centered over mid foot than a short legged person.

> To undo this, you need to do dynamic stretches,foam roll, nd strengthen your core daily

It's much safer to start with the bar and perfect your form regardless.
Anyway most people who lift higher when they start either

1. Work physical labor
2. Are fat

That's it. Genetics/test levels yes but that isn't typically the main reason.

Nope. Stop blaming your shitty form on "muh genetics".

>>42300398

not that guy but it really is teh case that if you wajnt to squat correctly, you better practice squatting, not doing a million other semi-related exercises

squatting stretches the muscles, squatting improves mobility, squatting improves flexibility, squatting IMPROVES SQUATTING

>But the most important matter on all of this is the depth of the hip socket. If people are looking up on the internet, depth of the hip socket and squat ability. they won’t find it. They have to go to the hip dysplasia literature. What they’ll find is that there are groups in the world with very shallow hip sockets and they have very high rates of hip dysplasia. The center of the world for hip dysplasia is Poland. They have very shallow interior hip sockets and they can squat very deeply. The femur comes right up because there is no bone on bone contact there.

You admit that his femur is longer than his torso, yet his form is still better than idiots who squat like OP or Layne Norton. If I were to critique Arnold's form, it's his lack of being able to keep his chest up, torso straighter up and lower back rounding. What's your next excuse?

>>42300675
To add to this, bodybuilders prior to Tom Platz didn't know how to squat properly except maybe a few selected ones.

>>42300675
you are an absolute fucking mongoloid, you continue posting even though it's clear you don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about

he is leaned that far forward even with highbar due to the relative length of his femurs, if he lowbarred this lean would be even greater

Layne's proportions are even more awful

>>42299392

>>42299769
or you could take a wider stance, retards

Fuckin' retard. That was the shittiest form I've ever seen in my life.

You used your back so much. You're going to injure your back doing that shit.

Squats are supposed to mainly be a LEG workout.

>>42300564
Is there anything to be done about it? Arnold says he moved on to Smith machine squats

>>42301044
Do Deadlifts, hack squats, BB hack squats, machine assisted squats, zertcher squats, goblin squats, bulgarian squats, pistol squats, lunges, dumbbell lunges, BB lunges, leg press, leg extensions, climbing, biking, leg raises, stepups

If you're going to fuck up your lower back doing low bar BB squats, don't do them. There are plenty of other ways to work your legs, THOUGH, I advise you try everything before you give up on low bar squats.

>>42301115
Thanks man!

>>42300938
>high bar squats and front squats aren't the same squat form

What the fuck, how are the morons in here not mentioning his bullshit form? Depth is so so but his body leans so far forward.

If it wasn't for his pussified belt, he would probably snap his shit. I'd rather be able to do 3x5 clean 300LBS then back breaking form on 500lbs.

Good lift man.

Seems a good place to post my question:

During/after squatting I have pain in lower right back. Kind of underneath my right Venus dimple. Not excruciating, but pretty much always enough to notice it when I take a step with my right foot. I know this is very general and could be attributable to many things, just wondering if anyone has any specific advice on for this.

>>42301956

T.guy who developed exact same pain ignored it for weeks and slipped a disc

>>42300244
Working with lower weights helped me with flexibility in the beginning. I couldn't chav squat with just body weight, but training for a bit with the bar let me get the flexibility to at least to parallel squats.

>>42301956
Stop squatting immediately. You should not be experiencing ANY kind of pain except muscle soreness and what you're describing is definitely not muscle soreness. You've likely pinched a nerve on the right of your lumbar spine. Is your right leg shorter than your left? Look into this and whatever you do, don't squat with weight until you're confident you've resolved the issue. Resolving the issue could mean using an elevated shoe to equalize your leg lengths or it could mean using a Klokov style asymmetrical stance, and I'm sure there are more alternatives. Tweaking your back, especially when it's one-sided, is very indicative of future snap city. Don't fall for any pain-ignoring memes.

Your back in general is important because your discs are at massive risk of degeneration as a result of lifting, especially if you don't pay attention to form.
You're getting spinal erectors confused with the entirety of the lower back.

>>42299416
Bar over mid foot, torso never dipped. Three white lights.

>>42300081
what. the. fuck.

>>42301770
Bar over mid foot. If he leaned over less he would be off balance. Deadlifts require you to lean over more, lift more weight, and have the weight hanging off your shoulders rather than a few inches down your back meaning a longer lever and more lower back stress, but I bet you think they're safe.

Ok so I workout and am very weak right now since I have only been going at it for a month.

What is the point of lifting up to 500?

Unless you are a pro lifter and compete I understand but why lift heavy and run the chance of seriously hurting yourself?

Personally if you are lifting around 300 to 250 that should be more than enough.

>>42307097
Stick to your brosplits and ppl and don't mind risking yourself to get those numbers.

OP's body is living proof that strength =/= aesthetics and even tho he might be rock bottom when it comes to genetics there's really no point to lift this heavy if all you want is to overall look good and be healthy.

I go atg high bar ez with ridiculously long femurs.

>>42307419
Not justifying OP's form as yeah it's pretty icky but it's a maximal lift, however, do you lift 500lbs ATG. If so I'd like to see.

I do exclusively high bar cause I'm scared of snapping my lower back up but been stalling hard recently. Having long femurs is hard.

>>42299392
This seems to be why I have an issue with Low Bar squatting particularly Rippetoe's method. You try using hip drive and it just shifts your bar position back and you have to good morning out of the whole because you haven't driven your hips under the bar to get centre of gravity back. I've always just been under the impression that chest up helps achieve the hips under the bar keeping centre of gravity when coming out of the whole. The reason your hips shoot back is because your quads can't handle the load so focusing on pushing hips through and getting them back under the bar and getting centre of gravity back under the bar and mid foot allows the quads to come in and take some of the load too.

Pretty torn when it comes to it. I should probably low bar particularly for my Long Legs at a 36-38 inseam and normal body but I just couldn't bare my squat looking like this.

Congrats though OP nontheless it's still a great achievement.

>>42307419

He can push his knees a little forward to get a more vertical position, but if this is how he is comfortable can't say anything about that

Are you retarded? This post screams mental illness
I never said training your lower back was bad, I even do back extensions every other work out and overhead carries to strengthen it and the rest of my core.
Your lower back can take a beating, but that doesn't mean you should load up 500 lbs and hinge the shit out of it. Not only does a properly performed squat provide better usage of your legs and back, it looks much cleaner and more impressive. Are you a huge fan of AlphaDestiny or something? Is that you, Alex?

>focusing on pushing hips through and getting them back under the bar and getting centre of gravity back under the bar and mid foot allows the quads to come in and take some of the load too
Meaning it's more pushing the hips forward than up?

>>42307978
If an anon spends his entire lifting career squatting low bar, the lower back gets trained along side the legs and abs.

In anon's perspective, he didn't just put on 500lbs and go. He trained the same way with a 405lb low bar squat. He trained the same way with a 315lb low bar squat. He probably even trained the same way with a 225lb low bar squat

Every step of the way his lower back got stronger and every step his lower back became more resistant to damage

you guys are a disgrace.

Here, this is how a squat should look like
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcEsmhVag1c

>>42308252
Sorry for the slow reply, yes, imagine it like a deadlift if you will. I seen an article covering it but basically when you hit the bottom of the squat and are about to come up and your hips shoot back, it's because your quads can't handle the load which is entirely true and your hamstrings will take over as knee extensors, this is fine and completely normal under heavy loads HOWEVER, you can't let them take over the whole time, focus on pushing your hips through as soon as possible to bring your quads back into play. Most people you see miss lifts is when this shooting back happens and then they take too long or don't cue well enough to get their hips back through and under the bar to turn their quads back on. I can't remember the article where I saw it but it was Chad Wesley Smith being analyzed when he's squatting like 800 high bar.

The hips shooting back is going to happen cause your hamstrings are generally stronger in the bottom position than your quads, after you get out of the bottom, push your hips back forwards and get your quads to take over again since they'll then be stronger.

This'll only apply to those heavy as shit lifts subjectively like OP's.

>low bar squat

>>42308856
>>42308252
Watch here. You can see it sort of but Chads fucking massive in general but you see his hips kinda come back as he comes out the bottom. He's focusing on driving his hips under the bar to get his quads back into it.

This is where the cue "chest up" or "traps up" comes from but I prefer "hips through". This is bound to happen as that shits gonna fuck with your spinal erectors and lean you forward unless 800 is babyweight.

Hope that helps..

>>42309119
No problem bud, hope that carries over into your future training. You can even try it out under a light load, purposely push your hips back so when the real thing happens you get it in.

Also why I think hamstrings and glutes play a huge part in Squatting, seem to notice most poeple who can't squat a lot don't do a lot of deadlifts or RDLs/general posterior chain work. Back plays a huge part and explains why Oly lifters have ridiculous squat numbers, spinal erectors for days!

why can't I squat 405

>>42308723
That's true my dude, come to think of it I haven't heard of many back injuries coming from squatting this way. But regardless, his lower back is handling the brunt of the weight because his entire core isn't strong enough to keep somewhat upright. His back was almost parallel to the floor at the beginning of the ascent

>>42311526
not a weak core, weak quads desu

or weak both

either way he's going to squat with quite a bit of forward lean to keep the bar over midfoot due to his long femurs - he has no choice here, he can either squat with lots of forward lean or lots of adduction (which isn't possible to do for many people because that's highly hip-geometry dependent)

everyone always bitches they can't squat because of their freakishly long femurs, but you never hear anyone say I can't bench because of my long humeri. pull the tampon out and squat fag.

>>42299446
HOLY
FUCK
please reconsider your position
that isn't a squat
that is a good morning
I don't see how you could possibly maintain your balance if you're essentially bent over maintaining the entirety of the weight within a small portion of your lumbar as an axis

you know how if you like, put weight on like, an axis, and then like, enact on it, like, with leverage, like, certain areas of that axis like, recieve more weight in psi than other areas?


this is kind of like how a plane turning horizontally enacts sheer forces equal to up to 11x the weight of the entire plane, you're doing something similiar except the sheer force is five hundred fucking pounds and you're putting it against a mound of flesh and the multiplier is much higher against the very delicate scaffolding that holds your fucking spine in place
yeah, okay, you've worked hard to get where you are
but for the love of fuck please review your form you fucking retard strength ape
you should push UP from the floor in a straight line, not do a fucking 500 pound good morning and call it a fucking squat holy fuck how are you still alive i have no fucking idea

ego lifting

i admire your dedication, but you really need to fix some things. that looked horrid. eventually, when you get to a certain level in lifting, lifting becomes about fixing minute details within the lifts.

>>42313028
Form on a 1rm is sometimes going to suffer. Maybe his chest lagged coming up a bit, but this was not a horrible low bar squat. Most people would do better to have more forward lean in their low bar squat.

>>42313345
https://www.t-nation.com/training/squat-mechanics-a-deep-analysis

More angle explained

I never wore a belt to the gym in my entire life. Maybe thats why in only at 2 plates

>>42313419
You should be able to squat at least 3pl8 beltless desu, the point is to have a strong enough core to not rely on a belt at babby weights

>>42313028
yes, squatting with that much forward lean massively increases shear force on the spine

we know this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Av3LO2GwpAk

now watch that video, and understand there there are only two possible ways to execute a squat with femurs that are long relative to your torso - you can squat with a lot of forward lean to keep the bar over your midfoot, or you can squat with a lot of adduction (knees pointed way out, large angle between your legs) and remain more vertical

now also understand that squatting with a lot of adduction is only possible for some hip geometries

so yes, his squat looks like shit, but unfortunately it will always look like shit - Layne Norton (who held an IPF squat record) is built the same way and also squats with horrendous looking folding lawnchair form, but this is the only way he can possible keep the bar over midfoot with his absurdly long femurs and non adduction friendly hip structure

>>42313501
incidentally this is also why guys with very long femurs relative to torso don't end up getting too much out of squats for quads - some other link in the chain will fatigue first (lower back usually) before the quads are fully trained by a squat

usually these guys barely feel their quads working in a squat even with highbar, instead their focus is on preventing themselves from folding over

>>42313501
>>42313521
Thanks for this, anon. My femur is around 30% of my height, so it makes sense why my squat looks so disgusting.

>>42313501

Can vouch for that. And thanks for the video, already knew most of this, but I've never seen it explained so succintly before.

I still squat, I still recommend everyone try to find a way to incorporate it into their routine, but I can't ignore the fact my quads grew best when I cut back on the squating and added:

1. damn stationery bike riding at a very high resistance setting, srsly
2. 3-4 sets of 400m running

It does more for my quads than any squat workout, ever. :/

It's not bad form. It's squatting low bar with relatively long legs. Low bar is meant to have an angled torso to create a moment arm for the hips to be in action.

It's not a matter of being weak. It's a matter of squatting preference

>>42315508
What's funny is that when I started using more forward angle in my low bar squats (I read Rip explaining why) I actually got more quad engagement and stopped getting aore hamstrings.

>>42299416

There is no need to go atg unless you are training the clean or the snatch.

i go ATG, i'm 6'2" with long legs. it's a matter of flexibility. feels great, looks good. my legs are bigger than the OP and i could probably only max a little above 300 (working sets are 3x5 at 275lbs)

>>42316348

>wider stance
if you're looking to hit depth safely, go high-bar with feet slightly more than HIP width apart (not should width). literally zero knee issues, safest and best way to squat! objectively!

>>42316348
What's your other lifts.

>>42316499

>>42316479
Tell us about your gear usage, and the gear usage among these olympians.

ITT:DYEL retards squatting sub 2 plate giving lifting advice to a 500 pound squatter

>>42316687
It's pathetic.

>>42316499
Stay mad squatlet

>>42316600
The team gb athletes I train with aren't pinning cos they're shit, and I'm 6"6" 297lbs and im not using, just huge and fat

>>42316540
I BP 3x5 at 215lbs, OHP 3x5 at 155lbs, and FS 3x5 at 245lbs. I do some sort of squat every workout. I don't really deadlift. I used to do Oly lifting (snatched BW at 190lbs; not much but I was happy with it). But I'm looking to get back into an Oly routine soon, just ordered Romaleos!

>>42316687
his form is shit

>>42308814
mirin, but when you're 5'2" it's a little easier to squat heavy and stay upright

>>42316479
>>42317162

that's a great squat but i bet if you cut down to not fat as fuck you would be squatting closer to 230kg

>>42307353
A high bar squat would make it even harder you fucking idiot.

>>42313856
What percentage is considered a disadvantage?

>>42317320
Ok so I don't feel as bad about my proportions then

>>42319149
the shorter the femurs, the better your squat mechanics

iirc the average is like 26% or something so anything past that you're at a disadvantage compared to some ""average"" squatter

You're not looking down, killing hip drive in the process.

SOMEONE POST THE FUCKING VIRGIN VS CHAD WORKOUT. IT TAKES SO LONG WITH YOU GUYS

>>42319306
How does one go about measuring their femur accurately?

My squat looks a lot like OP's even though I'm a dyel. I assumed it was a flexibility thing but I've been told I have long legs.

>>42320123

Imagine spending your Saturday night on 4chan asking how to measure your femurs

Imagine

>>42320191

Sounds like some top tier projection.

that was a really gross squat and doesnt it bother you that you dont find anything wrong with showing off your dicklet in public? put on some fucking shorts or track pants over your compression bullshit you stupid fuck

anyone can load up a ton of weight and do some bullshit abortion of a movement. that wasnt a fucking squat. it was a half good morning collapsing spine breaker 9000

>>42320286

GOOD JOB GAVE ME A RAGING HARD ON

Just made it to 5pl8 (485lbs). Was my form OK? It felt good, spine felt neutral and I powered through with hip drive quite easily.

>>42321021
Not 100% sure on the depth, but more importantly what the hell are those boots?

>>42321047
if i cant be thinspo i can still be effay

>>42321047
Steel caps from work, forgot to throw my gym shoes into my bag so just rolled with em.

Turns out that have fucking amazing stability, I might use them all the time from now on.

>>42319279
why not?

>>42300262
that rerack is honestly kind of retarded m8

>>42299392
horrible form, doesn't count. Pretty much this >>42307419 and >>42305852 and >>42300842 and >>42313868 and >>42299416 , it's a good morning.
I rarely suggest to do calves, but you sorely need that.
Anyway, please stop ego lifting.
>>42299446
"no"

>>42299392
low bars=/=squatting

The olympic squat is the only valid squat. Sorry, I know it will probably knock like 100 lbs off your epic "squat" but in the long run it will be better for you.

>>42319047
by fat as fuck i mean 22%bf

Nice squat man. In the long run you probably shouldnt post pr's on this website because no one actually lifts and will instanly shit on you for no reason.

Congrats dude
