no reason to do any form of squat unless you are routinely being fucked in the ass

yeah but if your doing squats you are only taking dick

>>42628454
if you're not a powerlifter there's no reason to ever squat, it fucks up your knees and tires you out. AT MOST you should do leg press and calf raises and something for glutes.

You don't even have to fall for the leg-training meme at all, you can just work upper body and occasionally jog or cycle.

Box squat forces correct form. It doesn't do anything bad to you. It's like cheating only there's no penalty you just reap the rewards.

How about you go back there with your awful advice. Box squats do the opposite of encourage good form because you lose tension at the bottom of the lift.

Squats actually don't do much for glutes. If you want a fat ass eat more, do deep weighted lunges, deadlift, hip thrust. Squats are at the bottom of the food chain for glutes and posterior chain work unless you do squat mornings.

Taking out the stretch reflex makes the muscles work harder thus you get more out of it. Box squats are objectively superior in every way outside of powerlifting.

I can guarantee you are not getting proper depth if you are losing the tension.

>>42628924
What the fuck are you talking about? I did ATG squats and ATG pause squats. Box squats do not use the stretch reflex to move the weight.

I'm saying you aren't getting depth with your shitty box squats.

>>42629061
I box squat to parallel. Close enough for me. There's no judge dq'ing me for not going a millimeter lower.

>>42629101
>parallel
I doubt this. It's a completely different exercise, anyways.

>>42629121
I'm confused why you would doubt that I box squat to parallel? I do. I use my flat bench for it and I squat with a relatively narrow stance to increase the ROM. I am tall and have long legs making the bench the perfect height for me for a to parallel box squat. The box squat and back squat are directly comparable and have been in several studies.

Furthermore some of the most prominent authorities on lifting only box squat such as westside barbell.

Good one buddy. Have you ever SEEN them squat?

>>42629350
They only squat in competition and have produced several record holding athletes. I'd take a long and hard look at your life before criticizing their methods.

>>42629388
They're all on steroids, fat, and don't get any "depth" whatsoever.

>>42629539
That's because they're training for powerlifting, dumpshit. And being on steroids lol what a cop out. Everyone who built a massive squat was on roids regardless of which method they used to get there. Fact is box squats work and science supports it. You got nothing.
