So let's settle this:
Is the squat supposed a leg exercise or hip exercise?
What is compound lifts for 200
>>36281410
low bar squat = hip exercise
high bar squat = leg exercise
it's mainly an anal exercise. so there you have it, friend. it's settled
>Overhearing conversation between coworkers, female and dyel male
>Female says she started squatting and her quads are sore
>Dyel tells her she must be doing them wrong, because squats are a glute exercise and that's where she should feel sore
>Chime in saying squats hit your glutes, quads, and other smaller leg muscles
>Dyel stares at me like I'm retarded, says "no you're wrong", then turns away to ignore me
>>36281448
this. low bar doesn't even involve quads

You should probably only talk about exercises you actually do, i.e. strict curls and calf raises.

That's because you're dyel too faggot. If you looked like you lift they would believe you.

Both.
All types of squats include both hip extension and knee extension.
So mainly the quadriceps, glutes, adductors and spinal erectors.

His knees are moving forward. He should sit back even more so that his knees do not move forward at all. Then it will take out the quads' involvement in the movement.

There several kinds of squat
See: >>36281448
HB squats are only quads, if properly executed
LB squats are only glutes, if properly executed
And then there's several hybrid versions, like the one showed on exrx, which work both glutes and quads.

I didn't know squats were isolation exercises. Guess I learn something new everyday.

posts like this are the biggest supporting argument for abortion and human euthanasia.

That would be a good idea, Sweden. Spend less time on 4chan and more time protecting all the 12yo girls who are getting raped in the streets by "refugees"

i won't tell you to kill yourself, but please seriously consider sterilization for the future of humanity's sake

And as you can see, his knees are travelling forward, which activates the quads and makes them a synergist in the lift. A properly executed LB squat will only utlilize the quads as stabilizers.

And as for HB squat. It should be done somewhat like this. Narrow stance and halfway down. That way the glutes don't get dynamically involved
