P-Mack posted:How the gently caress am I supposed to squat in one of those Smith machines with the slight backwards incline? Anything I do feels wrong. You can do something that's more like a leg press by putting your feet pretty far out in front of you but you'd be better off using an actual leg press machine.

Minorkos posted:hello i would like to join the lovely knee club. my knee feels weird again. i've had this poo poo for like 5 months now. first i took a 1 month break from gym and it didn't heal, then i took 2 months and it didn't heal, and now it's been 1 month again and apparently shoveling snow 4 days in a row was enough to stress it to the point of soreness again. i don't know what's up with it, i'm 22 so it's not like it can be just falling apart Where does it hurt?

Steroids in pill form are a lot harder on your body than those you inject because they go through your liver twice or something. But if you do them right away instead of training hard for a few years you're retarded and will still look like poo poo.

Try changing your feet placement to minimize it but yeah that can happen depending on the machine. You're right to be careful Why do the idiots in all these videos take the time to put on knee wraps if they're only squatting 6"??? How is that going to help at all? Where is the logic in the series of poor choices that lead to these videos?

Hatebag posted:It's $20/month for effectively 2 memberships. Girlfriend comes as a guest every time. No good gym can compete with that. This is a contributing factor in deciding to build a wooden squat rack, though. Actually a good gym provides you with an environment where you can make progress surrounded by successful athletes, not pizza for $20/month

Paper Diamonds posted:Just signed up at a powerlifting/strongman gym for $45 a month. And is "open 24/7/365" which just means it's a warehouse full of oly platforms, power cages, benches, all kinds of weird strongman concrete spheres. Keypad to enter, you just use your code , No staff. No locker room. A single small toilet room. These are the best gyms. Enjoy the roids.

Paper Diamonds posted:The equipment had a certain prison grunge atmosphere. But everybody was super nice and there were some really strong people there. One of the big powerlifting associates in the area is Natural Athletes Strength Assoc. and it sounds like some of the guys compete there. Obviously it doesnt mean nobody is using roids, but whatevs. Yeah more seriously the vast majority of strong people are pretty nice and helpful and less of them are on something than you'd think. Learn what you can from them. You're in the right environment to make crazy gains. Uxzuigal posted:How do you make two 5's become 20? Or a 10... post ur press bruh

Paper Diamonds posted:At the time of squatting it feels good. The next day stiff as gently caress. I'll try narrow and a bit shallower on Monday. Are wider stance really that bad of an alternative? I'm not even sure if the depth in the narrow squat is the issue that's causing the stiffness. They're not necessarily bad but can stress your hips out over time. Better than something that'd definitely causing you pain.

Just keep tearing up your shoulder. When it heals it'll be even stronger and bigger.
