Weight Training for Legs

Then why did you say front squats?

 

This conversation makes no sense. I said the squats felt like more of a back workout than leg. You replied saying that the bar might not be up far enough on my front shoulders close to my neck.

Are you just talking about another point entirely?

 

"How high is the bar sitting for your front squats? If it doesn't feel pretty uncomfortable on your throat you don't have the bar high enough. Usually the issue when people feel it in their back more as the weight shifts forward."

You are referring to front squats here not back squats.

 

You're referring to them as if they were the lift I was having problems on when in fact it was back squats that I felt were more of a back workout than a leg workout.

"It was squats that felt like they were stressing my back more than my legs"

your reply

"I know. That's what I said. Having the bar too low on the shoulders sometimes causes that issue. That or you have a weak lower back."

 

Everyone in the weightlifting community knows that squats refer to back squats. Nobody ever refers to front squats as squats. In fact, in powerlifting they just call it the squat.

So no, the confusion is your guys' fault.

 

I've never tried to be the smartest person in the room, you're just dumb.

I never said squats and front squats in the same sentence on the original post. I never even referred to squats as back squats. I always said squats in reference to back squats. Never mentioned back squats until you started incorrectly trying to diagnose me.

 

Ok. If you want to play games then fine.
