Calvin Johnson Jr. posted:tell me why i should keep squatting when i feel like i get more results from heavy rear end leg press Why are you doing leg presses before squatting? Also squatting is awesome and leg presses are good but squats will work a lot more muscles.

I had to stop doing squats and switched to leg press for a couple of months due to an injury. I thought it was not that different until I started doing light squats again and goddamn I was so sore afterwards I could barely get out of my bed the next day. Quads were fine but hams, glutes, adductors, even the lower back muscles and abs were sore.

Just maxed on squats. Got 15 pounds this cycle. Moved like poo poo though. Work travel has totally messed up my training. Time for bench. Will report back if I am not killed.

I've lost 10 percent of my body weight since the start of summer, and aside from my waist all my measurements and lifts are about the same. I know that's a good thing since it means I'm retaining my muscle mass, but it's kind of weird that going from 180 to 163 hasn't really affected how I look in the mirror that much.

Yeah, here's the first photo I've taken and the one that I took today: https://imgur.com/a/5gADJ2u I'm not complaining, mind you. It's just that it wasn't what I expected what I would look like at this weight. After getting to 163 I maintained for about a month, and now I'll go for another 5 to 10 pound loss and see what happens. I need to start build some muscle mass by next summer too so I need to finish this fat loss business by the end of this year

Hello Swole friends, Walmart has some gym mats on sale today. https://slickdeals.net/f/12110035-w...e=3#commentsBox Did some quick math and it cost about $55 to do about 1/2 my 2 car garage. Gonna move my rowing machine and weights down there so I can finally clean out the spare room they are in now. Might just have to invest in a squat rack and bench at this rate lol. My gym isn't far but sometimes I just can't be assed to leave the house.
