Do you find Squats really really hard like me?
>>36466026
Yeah i guess. I always sweat a ton and feel real tired after legs. I just really dont like leg day and i really dont know why
> did my first low bar back squat
>last week Monday
>I go back to the gym today
>thats an entire week it took to get rid of DOMS
>wtf is going to happen after today, same thing?
>I am so fucking hungry all the time because of Squats
>fuck you Squats, fuck you.

Who the fuck doesn't sweat and feel tired after doing squats?
>>36466033
I think it's overall more work for your body, and your leg muscles are built for endurance so it takes a lot to wear them out. More reps, higher weight, and longer distances equals more energy expended.

I recommend upping your frequency. once I started squatting 3x per week, they started to become much less of a hated thing.
have now been squatting 3-4x per week, alternating between heavy and light squats, as well as back and front squats, or other variations.
Same but with deadlifts. Pull with a straight back and even with under 220 lbs my lower back feels like it's collapsing in on itself
>really hyped to deadlift today
>fuck up form and get lower back pain again
feels like it's nothing major but i'm still bummed out. please console me /fit/. please tell me it's going to be okay soon.
Anyone here not feel tired after squats?
>tfw thighs can handle anything
>tfw back feels like it's going to snapcity
>tfw leg day today
I used to hate squats but after I started really working on my core I have progressed on my squats and now I look forward to do them.
>tfw my routine has reached a point that I look forward to each day as much as the last
>today is OHP and deadlifts followed by pull ups and stretching
Fuck em. I do them but still fuck em.
I'm tall which makes them suck even more. I have to walk home on shakey legs. I don't give a shit about leg pump so i can't even check myself out properly.
Fuck em.

Stop and deload to one plate and videotape your form. Please don't hurt yourself, anon.

You'll be fine. After your initial DOMS, the next session will be much easier on your body. It happens if I ever take a break from legs for even a week.
>doing back destroying squats
>not doing ass to grass front squats for superior athleticism
