6 months SS
120lbs
5'10
60kg max squat 1RM
I squat wrong because of my poor ankle flexibility, what shoes should I buy?
>>35225317
Just remove your shoes when squatting.
If you have poor ankle flexibility, shoes aren't the answer.
>>35225317
If you've been doing SS for 6 months and can only do 60kg squat something is VERY wrong.
Btw, i squat with socks on only, i prefer it.
>>35225358
the poster could be very frail or a weaker female
>>35225358
>i squat with socks on only, i prefer it
if you do this in a gym you are gross and everyone thinks you're a weirdo
>>35225317
you need to eat more, dude
>>35225358
I'm a male with shit appetite and bitchmade bone structure
>>35225373
>if you do this in a gym you are gross and everyone thinks you're a weirdo
yeah this is probably true, but on the plus side i squat more than anyone else in the gym.
>>35225375
appetite or not man, you need to shove good quality food down your throat whether you like it o not, use olive oil, eat lots of avocados, eat lost of meat, nuts, fruit, cream etc...... just fucking EAT.
Your skeletal structure shouldn't impair you so much in the beginning.
>>35225373
>if you do this in a gym you are gross and everyone thinks you're a weirdo
Not him but I squat shoeless as well and it's nothing "weird"
Change gym or just don't give a fuck (chances are nobody is actually giving a fuck)
>>35225373
>if you do this in a gym you are gross and everyone thinks you're a weirdo
it's not true, depends which kinda gym you are at
if you're in a commercial gym some people will give you the stink eye but you should disregard them and continue with your workout
for 6months, you don't seem to be improving a lot on the SS, and when you say you squat wrong, what do you mean?
>>35225341
This anon has got it right, but you should look into getting a full squat, even without the bar or shoes. Just a slav squat.
If you are still looking into getting shoes, get romaleos, adipowers or do wins, I'm personally saving up for romaleos myself
>>35225317
I got these. Ignore crossfit logo, they're stable as fuck.
I got them cause they were at a Reebok outlet store and I could actually try them on instead of just guessing the size online. Plus they were only $100.
>>35225375
just fucking eat and stop giving yourself excuses
Switch to low bar squat
>>35225426
are they good?
how long have you had them?
>>35225383
no, seriously though. get some vibrams. it's really inconsiderate and unnecessary to go shoeless
>>35225375
you will not succeed and you will not gain if you do not eat and eat hard. i learned this the hard way
>>35225427
I'm scared of food
>>35225317
Ive got some screen shots from a book i torrented about nutrition OP.
1 of 3
>>35225443
>I'm scared of food
is it a eating disorder?
what is it about it that scares you so much?
Were you fat before?
>>35225426
borrowed my dad's pair when my adipowers got stolen. they're decent but not as stable as adipowers by a long shot and desu not even as stable as chucks. if the elevated heel really helps, they're alright. save up for some adipowers/romaleos or at least some powerlift 2.0s though
>>35225445
part 2 of 3
>>35225461
fin
Not sure if they are in order, but its good info on basic shit.
>>35225455
That guy wasn't OP, I'm OP
I grew up with shitty portions
My mother is a tiny 5'4 woman who barely made food, hence my weak appetite
I'm currently overdosing on chocolate milk eggwhites and avocados
>>35225476
thats good OP, keep up the good work.
>>35225476
>I'm currently overdosing on chocolate milk eggwhites and avocados
are you sure you're 'overdosing' on them tho
someone is posting screenshots of some nutritional thing but really
Calories in>Energy expended=Weight gain
Calories in< Energy expended= Weight loss
be careful in how much mass you're putting on too, you hear shit like 'Gomad' but if you're not prepared to become a fat sack of shit then don't do it
Read picture number 3 that lad has posted for a clearer idea on how to gain mass
>>35225433
Had em for like 6 months now. Helping my squats a lot. No buckling knees, don't have to worry about foot placement, much better form. It feels like im wearing those iron boots from Zelda.
>>35225457
I don't know about adipowers, but they're far better than chucks. No lateral movement. You gotta make em tight. Like almost cut of circulation tight for the most stability.
>>35225317
chuck taylors
you're set for life
>>35225502
2 avocados a day
2L of chocolate milk
6 egg whites
>>35225510

nice, I'm buying romaleos as soon as eastbay posts a price dr0p
>tfw they had a 20% drop and I didn't get it in time because I was thinking about which color to get
>faggoty af i know but still mayne
topkeks at feeling like copping iron boots from Zelda

>you should disregard them and continue with your workout
No, you shouldn't ignore them because it's probably against the rules.
>>35225529
trust me,
you need more protein, and not just from chocolate milk, that sugar intake is too god damn high for someone just starting out on SS, someone shoot me an arrow to the knee but you should be getting your protein from more solid sources mayne
how long you've been eating like this?
>>35225572
Im the anon with socks, no one says shit and thinking about it now, I don't thin k anyone even gives a shit, which is how Iike it.
Now stop fagging up OPs thread.
>>35225572
Why would working out without shoes be against the rules
Like 50% of people squatting do it
>>35225317
dude, you're severely underweight
i honestly don't think that's healthy even if you're a male
>>35225475
>don't eat wheat
fuck you are self
>>35225572
>No, you shouldn't ignore them because it's probably against the rules.
srsly though it depends
I lift at a weightlifting gym and it's alright, people lift in their slippers sometimes pulling 4 pl8s
The reasoning behind socks/shoes is probably the gym worrying that you'll drop a dumbbell on your feet, which actually might happen but you'll have to take responsibility for that yourself
If you remove your shoes when you deadlift I don't see why not, it's not like you're going to run around the gym like a 7 y/o pretending to be a helicopter
>>35225317
beginner here
bought me some converse all star chucks in white
pretty good man
>>35225590
It's against the rules in my gym. Actually had one of the owners tell me.
>>35225574
2-3 months
Forgot to say I try to get 200g of pork everyday added to my everyday meals
roughly 44g of prots
>>35225613
should have got blue, goes faster
>>35225426
>wearing shitty shoes with shitty cushions
FLAT
SHOES
ONLY
>>35225614
Why
I thought my gym's "no jeans" policy was draconic enough
>>35225619
kek
probably.
then again im only starting SL.
>tfw slowly feeling DOMS creep up
best feel
>>35225602
don't really know the reasoning behind that,this is the book i took it from btw.

>>35225615
lol pork is one of the fattiest meats
why the fuck are you doing this to yourself?
>>35225644
fucking
why
way to expensive
>>35225649
>not eating non salted nut mix every now and then as a snack
>>35225653
i torrented it, its free.
Ive actually got a library in my computer of hundreds, maybe thousand of books I've torrented.
>>35225649
>lol pork is one of the fattiest meats
Depends
I eat a lot of tenderloin which is really low in fat
>>35225670
>reading books
snapcity aint waiting for ya
>>35225550
>not immediately copping neon pukegreen
ya blew it
>>35225358
hush, it aint easy breaking out of auschwitz
>>35225629
shoo shoo go away
that little bit of elevation makes a world of difference
>>35225615
how are you not gaining mass like crazy then
2 gallons of chocolate milk
2 avacados
6 egg whites
200g of pork
Yo, for your eggs, you don't have to minus out the yolk, for every 5 eggs you can allow 1~2 yolk
I'm 5'6 and eating 5 eggs (2yolks) 2 chicken boobs and milk to go with my oats and peanut butter
Drink less milk because it's been fucking up the acne on my face
You should be looking to getting more of your protein sources from actual tangible solid food items than milk, if you can afford it
When I was a little poorer, I was getting my protein from canned tuna (cheap af, and if you're in the USA, check whether there's an Aldi's around the corner), cottage cheese and milk
Experiment around and see what you can stomach.
>>35225619

I can't wear bright colors when I workout, it will literally distract me

Pick one faggot. You didn't do the program, you went through the motions and ate like a puss.
Buying new clothes isn't going to make your problems go away. Stop thinking like a woman.

>Shit! We better tell all the Olympic athletes!
you're an idiot.
enjoy losing 30% of your energy through chosing the wrong shoes.
>>35225725
>chewnningszxxxscxx rawr XD
but it really does, have you ever tried squatting 70%-80% training intensity with elevated shoes?
quads and glutes are more activated
>>35225771
thanks for the fix p00p00
>>35225823
>have you ever tried squatting 70%-80% training intensity with elevated shoes?

what?
the exact opposite
you want the force through squatting to be transported through your feet and legs and not get absorbed through your shoe
>>35225767
this desu
>>35225829
u wot
do you even physics brah
>>35225775
>>35225829
You're an idiot for thinking that a squat shoe is a runner. Please educate yourself before you feel entitled to post your opinion.
