Is your form shit using only body weight? Maybe it's all that dancing you've been doing. (random late night text of confusion)

Start your squat days off with this possibly:

20x body weight squats (get low mother fucker). X3 rounds
Walk it out 2min
10xdumbell squats x2 rounds
Now do your regular sets for gains (ie, squats, front squats, whatever)
Gotta wake those muscles up, make em remember what you want the to do.

I got your text, I haven't danced in forever, we should go sometime, fly to new York around the 20th of sept, well dance
All nIght long
Hell, everyone we meet will probably be dancing in the street if we team up.
All night long...all night
Let the music play on.
Mean while you need to stop not playing FFXIV, and instead play XIV

[thetruepandagod]

shiro answer my questions now

[thetruepandagod]

quickly becase i am already thinking of new questions

[Shiroikage]

Shiro my squats have gone to complete shit i have no idea what im doing wrong anymore, it's like a switch flipped and now my knee feels like it wants to pop every single time my knee's buckle and my back caves in somewhat when i drive up. I was doing 215 with good form, and now i dropped down to 135 to figure out what was wrong and im struggling at 135 i have no fucking idea whats going on. It's like my body just said fuck squats all at once.

do you squat high-bar or low-bar?
do you consciously push your knees out during the squat? this is such an important cue for knee health and back health because it makes you engage your hips, but everybody never even acknowledges it whenever i mention it

[Shiroikage]

also shiro this picture deserves so much more recognition than it got:

No, still working on dat six pack

my plan is to just get big and strong enough that my six-pack shows up incidentally
currently, i am working towards this goal by squatting maximal weights everyday
getting leaner, even with occasional postworkout cheeseburger binges

Yo, I'm gonna start doing squats... Shiro/tpg whats a good way to get form down before I fuck up my back worse than it already is

start with a high-bar squat
squat down, pushing your knees out and lifting your chest, stand back up

Yeah, you're right. I'm not even completely trying yet, but it's already ungodly. It pretty much turns into DIFFICULT AB WORKOUTS EVERY DAY.

But seriously, any advice on the squat form when first starting out? My back is fucked and after a few weeks of dead lifts, I stopped because I fucked up my lower back (also went on vacation back home). My neck has been fucked up for the past couple weeks as well, but idk due to what.

take videos of stuff, i'd bet you were stiff-legging your deadlifts

No real way to critique your squat without you actually squatting and taking a video and asking for a form check. Also depends on if you want to do high bar or low bar squat or powerstance squat.

videos are so important, even if you are the only one who watches them
i try to take video at every training session

Keep dem glutes mighty tight, dat core tight head looking up dont let your head drop or the rest of your body will follow, drop down low ass to the ground and thrust back up.

i like to think of myself as a piston going up and down
head up isn't really necessary, i tend to just stare forward

bodyweight squats are not weighted squats, and don't reflect weighted squat form
front squats or goblet squats are a better corrective exercise

I actually recorded some DL's to show you, i keep forgetting to bring my phone in the gym with me on leg days though.

If you can teach me how to shrink a gif i have 2 adorable ones with a nervous little dance and an ass jiggle.
