I do squat 6x a week and alternate between a push and a pull exercise, kind of a ppl routine with high intensity and frequency but low volume.

I'm sure he's still crying himself to sleep

I wish I could squat everyday but everytime I squat I run into problems either in the hips or knees.

I know my form is probably garbage but I can't learn by hurting myself all the time. I think I'm going to have to try lowbar again and start small.
>>
do you guys that squat all the time, do you play sports? do you modify your training schedule?
i play soccer 2x a week and doing squats a day before a match would fuck me up, so only 3 days a week i could do them or any serious leg lifts

How does one squat ass to grass? I can barely squat pararell, and even then sadly I only squat 250.

>mfw flexibility of corpse
>>
>>42374921
You don't, you squat as far as your mobility allows. Especially if you're doing lowbar or not using olympic shoes.

Leave the ass to grass for front squats.
>>
>>42374898
how limited is the equipment?
you have maxed out your equipment? because even if no spotter its safe to add like small amount of weight you are repping 20 per set.

you could try bulgarian split squats with dumbells to challenge yourself more, can increase the weight wth no spotter

Nsun's 531 is a much better routine than that faggot's useless memeroutine with 30 exercises.
>>
>>42374459
why the fuck are you squatting every work out? do you WANT an X taper?
>>
>>42374949
Different kind of squats require different kind of mobility. Highbar squats are slightly more technical than lowbar and there's specific technique queues you have to be aware of otherwise you have a higher risk of knee injury.
Lowbar squats are less technical and put less stress on the knees if you do them right which is why Rippletits recommends them.

You also have to acknowledge that people are asymmetrical, so you might need to modify your form slightly to accommodate for longer femurs or even variance in individual leg length.

In terms of squatting mobility...Rippletits doesn't even recommend you stretch before squatting. Just do 2 sets of the empty bar to get the blood flowing and put on your weight and go to town. The optimal squat is simply making sure the crease of your hip goes below the top of your knee.

I fell for the PPL meme and want to swap over due to no gains, what's the best accessories for the 4-day split? and can I just put my 3x5 weight in as my training max for the spreadsheet? I haven't test 1rms since I started and I don't want to skip a day just to test them
>>
>>42375362
>can I just put my 3x5 weight in as my training max for the spreadsheet?

I guess so, the training max is 90% of your 1rm so the weight you're using for 3x5 should be about 90%.

Best accessories are up to you to fix your weaknesses but make sure to do the recommended ones and do lots of upperback and rear delts.

What do you do if you're quad dominant in one leg and ham dominant in the other? Is there any way to accommodate for that while squatting, or should I just keep doing single leg exercises to try to get more balanced first? It seems like whenever I squat, my right quad takes too much of the weight, and my left hamstring takes too much too, leading both of my knees to mistrack and hurt.
>>
>>42374459
Squatting is literally the only way to build quads at any acceptable rate.

If you want to be some filthy leglet who doesn't even have meaty thighs then do skateboard squats.
>>
>>42374817
Same Breh. Every time I do legwork my left calf muscle just nopes the fuck out on me and starts having an autistic seizure unless it has some help from the right leg.

I can do squats and deads fine, but anything like a single leg extension is out of the question for me.
