you guys are over emphasizing on the knee-toes thing.
As long as the weights are moving up and down vertically, i think it's fine.

maybe i should take a vid from backwards to show u my stance's width.
anyway, thanks for the criticism kirk...
i have a low box-stool like thing in my gym.
I'll see how much of a verticle shin i can keep while box squatting on it. thanks.

Kirk... hope u can get some squat vids in today...
I wanna see how a pro does it.

I'll be getting more vids too... and i don't want to
be the only one posting vids here.

over emphasizing? if u get a screwed knee dont come crying to us

i actually have a vid, but youtube ain't leetin me upload it man........sttttctewpid.....

it's a vid of my front squatting my bro hahahahaha
terrible form of course, hahaha he was struggling too much

Come to think about it, I could squat my housemate.....

yep yep!
but it's overhead pressing them, and putting tehm on your back that's the b****
especially when ur bro struggles like mad

LOL pizza, i would like to see that vid ROFL...

syd, u back? is that you in the avatar?
you gotta teach me to do that mannnn

pizzaboy : Wont I get ...er.... a bulging organ pressing on the back of my head? For girls it aint so bad but euwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

King : Teach wot? How to get two upper abs peaks? I personally think its more genetics than training. Like how you have bicep peaks and I dont .

But then I might be wrong

okay... i'm kinda traumatized...
i walked into the locker room and i saw one of the big dudes
holding a syringe in his hand. That's freaky...
he just brushed it off saying he's a doctor.

anyway, moving on to something easier to swallow.
Here are my first time doing box squat vids...
It's nothing worth looking at really, i'm not very happy with my
form either.... but i'll be doing this when i start HST next week.
Hopefully there's still some patience left in you guys to teach
me till i get it right.

kthanksbye

Pizza is right....
I can't lock my knees...
therefore if u ask me to do quarter or half squat, i can't...

i need to do a lot of box squatting mannnn.....
Thanks for introducing this to me.

btw, i noticed i shouldn't stand too close to the box, so that my shins can go straighter.
but scared lah if i landed on my butt, that's gonna really hurt.

very good
very good

You are funny kirk.... i always liked it when u talk
in the beginning of your vids.... like the last time u count
ur weights before squatting ROFL...

and holy shit.... all that struggling and you still managed to
keep knees behind toes

btw, need u to clarify something...
am i doing it right?


Am i doing it right by bending my body like in diagram A, the weights are centralized.

Or should i do it like diagram B.... but i think it's impossible to stand up
from position B.

If it's a non-back squat, Diagram B. Park your ego. Reduce the weights if necessary. You shouldn't be slouching anyway.

I got whalloped by an Oly lifter for squatting & doing voluntary good mornings .

it's "A"
b.....u'll fall over

Stupid tmnut screamyx...
internet interuptions throughout the klang valley...

anyway, kirk u made that video for me?
U kept saying look at knees dey....
Thanks bro ! come down kl sometime, i belanja u ankipesto

leaning towards too much will kill u tho. u know what king. u should drop your weights. re do squats and fix your form, u've got some form problem there.

yeah i noticed that too...
nvm lah, HST got 15 and 10 reps wan....
i'll go lighter and plenty of time to fix my form.
Thanks for letting me know.

My point, jones Rokiah gave me the same advice

well u needed something~

It won't kill you lah....it'll cause problems like;

1. Knee injuries
2. Back injuries
3. Inability to lift heavier weights
4. Failed lifts

The knee can only handle that much pressure, too much leaned forward you bust it, so learn to use your glutes, hams, to lift the weights.
I taught an iranian how to do squats, his first time doing squats, he did 135LBSx2 with PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT form. HE was as good as those olympic lifters I swear to god. He went SO GODAMNNED deep that his ass was nearly on the floor. My eyes popped out lookin at it.

You should rename this to "Powerlifting Thread" Kirk. It's much better that way for those who're more poundage oriented.
