    hey, let's all judge each other. cuz you know, we haven't done that in twenty minutes.
    Yes, lets do that instead of trying to understand what will best help us get toward our fitness goals.

    I love forums about squatting. So much "my way or no way". There are a dozen ways to squat, and do so correctly with good form, and all of them offer their benefits.

    Heavy is relative...to both the lifter, as well as the type of squat you are doing. No need to smirk at one another.

    Lots of good squat info can be found at squatrx.blogspot.com as well as bretcontreras.com

    I need to be more consistent with squats. They hurt and I have trouble keeping the motivation.
    But I will keep trying.

    they are soooooooooo hard and painful but sooooo beneficial! We all want that hot *kitten* bootay ;)

    Also if your legs are hurting you are doing it wrong! I invested a good 2-3 hours on Youtube finding the 'correct' way to squat! Well worth a look! :)

    Because everyone is too busy mud slinging and arguing over what the term "heavy" means for everyone.
    Cause you know, "heavy" is the same for every single person out there. It's not subjective to a person's fitness level...at all.

    Do panties stop being panties just because a man wears them? Those are panties.

    They don't look like it because the black continues above the belt, so I'm thinking something along

    I did 3x5 BB squats for 6 months three days a week, it really jumped started my quad growth. Now I do 5x5 BB squats, it's easier on my lower back, but since not going to muscle fatigue in each set I also do leg extensions and leg presses.

    I look at my quads in more admiration than any other body part even though most besides those who knock on door early in the morning will ever see them. A lot of guys don't work their legs because the ladies are all about the arms, chest, six pack, and Adonis belt.

    45lbs is an unloaded barbell. Lol. How is that heavy?

    my thoughts exactly

    Obnoxious much?
    Considering that squats start out with your body weight, 45 lbs is quite a bit less than that. That would be like saying I'm doing heavy curls by drinking from a 32 oz water bottle that doesn't even weigh as much as my arm.

    Squats without any weight isn't really that much of an "exercise." I do that like 100 times a day as a matter of normal daily activity, every time I stand up from a chair. Doing an extra dozen isn't going to make a difference.

    It would be 45 pounds plus body weight. Are you for real?

    I will accept this explanation. There's also a vacuum in the background. From the umm....state of things, looks like he's really really exited to do some housework!
