i think # 3 4 5 are the reason y it hurt for me... didnt really go atg just parallel and probably wearing lacoste doesnt help either ( usually squats without shoes but the staff said that you have to wear shoe since it a new community center rule )
I agree with alwayslive. Had a friend who always passed out of the blue due to low blood pressure. One time, we had a presentation for school, and he just fell to the floor. Really scary shit
I believe he's Persian??
I do have difficulty donating blood because of low blood pressure.
I use lacostes to squat sometimes and they're not too bad, kind of like chucks because of how flat and how thin the soles are. Maybe you should think about investing in a pair of weightlifting shoes like the addidas power perfect because of the elevated heel
meowjin you need some thoracic mobility, take a foam roller and stick it under the bottom of your shoulder blades and lie over it on the ground. stay there for a few minutes
gotta get some more flexibility in the muscles of your front
i'm similar to you, you have a strong bench so chances are you're pretty tight in the front
There are no principles, there are only events. There is no good and bad, there are only circumstances. The superior espouses events and circumstances in order to guide them.
not sure if my form on squats my 225lbs squat is bad or something but my lower back started to get sore right after i finish up my last set ( only hurt for a short time) it was fine the first 3 set but as soon as i finish my last one can barely bent over to pick up the 45lbs plate never had this problem in the past 3 month of squating
Had the same problem a couple months back. It's probably due to the lack of glute activation. Make sure you're squeezing your butt at the top after every rep, and really focus on using your ass during squats.

Are your hips shooting up first? are u leaning forward too much? Not keeping a neutral spine (ie. not arching or arching too much)?
Film yourself squatting your working sets next time *back & side view* so we can get a better idea how your squats look like. Just like fcukedd said deactivation of glutes can be one of the reasons. Perform glute bridges to have an idea if it is that case. You should feel all the stress on glutes and minimal lower back if at all.

Sonick is a genius. I won't go into detail what's so great about his post. But it's damn good!

Just started layne nortons PHAT routine but I modified it into a 4 day plan instead of the original 5 days. (upper power/lower power/upper hyp./lower hyp.)
in his article on simplyshredded, he says that you should do EITHER deadlifts or squats.
If I only do squats and only deadlift once a month, will my deadlifts go down by a lot?
For those of you that did this routine, how did you deal with the soreness? Did you still go 100% effort on the hypertrophy days?
When I did that routine I did squats then deadlifts almost right after. I don't think your deadlifts are gonna go down that much unless you lose a lot of weight. IMO you should be able to maintain those lifts if not better. Just do what the routine says about going 65-70% because the first 2 weeks will be really exhausting if your body isn't used to the volume and once your body adjusts you can decide after that.
