as an oly lifter how is your back and frontsquat weak?
>>
>>36495447
Those are starting to get old since I haven't tested PRs in a long time. I don't do heavy front squats since I do them at the end of my workout where I'm already tired and I gave up pendlay rows for chinups.

>>36496265
Yeah anything over 225 gives me anxiety I'm going to fail and get trapped under it. Thinking about dropped $ on a cage to see if having safety arms would help with it.

Do people here put their age in?

I do, and it makes me intermediate rather than stronger.

Are 21 year olds stronger on average than 18 year olds?
>>
>>36496421
I meant novice not stronger.
>>
>>36496416
I know, I don't have confidence in my ability to do it safely like I can with bench fails. Its not logical.
>>
>>36496526
A bench fail is way more risky than a squat fail lol.

I'm similar (well my deadlift is still higher than my squat, but only by 10 kilos).

If my squat was to ever overtake my DL i'd probably switch to sumo stance.

I have short arms.

As far as you can with good form and mobility.

For most guys that's just past parallel depending on their Squat style.

Haven't squatted in months due to what feels like bone on bone in the knee.
Pretty balanced though.

20 y/o 5'11 155 lbs ex spooky mr skeletor

Started "lifting" at 13 but basically fucked around and kept stopping and picking it up again till about a year ago

Been doing a linear progression (Esp for deadlifts) PPL routine for the last month or so. Also on a bulk

Deadlifts are weak because I never really bothered to do the exercise never realizing how important they are to complement squats and only picked up the slack about two months ago

[spoiler]Also I lift at Planet Fitness because college poorfag[/spoiler]
