If I could start over again, I wouldn't do a single squat. There's no anatomical benefit to them that outweighs the cumulative damage they cause over the course of a decade.

You're not the first person to say that. I think some people have hips that just don't work with frequent squats

Definitely. Two things that seem to fuck people's hips: squats and wrestling. Great if you get paid to squat or wrestle, shit if you plan on being pain free and mobile when you're 60.
I stick to the leg press now, and very occasionally some front squats, but never higher than a couple of hundred pounds.

Lol fucking idiot... It's the single best exercise there is... If ur causing damage to yourself ur either doing it wrong or ur midget ego is causing u to use too much weight... I bet u got tiny legs just like douglas...Grow up...

My legs are much smaller than they were, they were 29.5 inches at their biggest, which is around the same as an IFBB pro. They're 25 or less now. I'll dig out a picture of them in a sec, I have a grainy as shit phone picture.
I don't agree that it's the best exercise. It's a great mass builder for the legs, but down the line, the payoff just isn't worth it. You get big quads, which massively fucks with your ability to wear suits or fashionable clothes, and it's just not possible to have perfect form for every rep. Or even if you could, there's always those days where niggling injuries might have pulled something out of alignment, which is then an issue of biomechanics, which means your form is irrelevant.
There is nothing in a squat that can't be replicated in the leg press, lunge, and partial deadlift.

Can't find the picture, but this is them as of ten minutes ago.
Not particularly big, but still pretty aesthetic, considering I barely train legs.

I agree with sys0p. I don't do squats either. My body proportions just aren't built for them.
For legs I do single leg press, V-Squat, leg curls and leg extensions, as well as calf raises. Works fine, weights are increasing and my knees don't hurt anymore. Also much easier on my lower back so I can deadlift more.

Chill out a little, mate, you don't have to act in this insane fashion continuously, we're all just a bunch of strangers who like lifting weights. Try and make a connection.
My calves are actually pretty big. I have low insertions. You can see they're big from the picture.
Think about this: would I lie about being 5'7 if I was smaller? Wouldn't I just lie and say I was 6' or something? Doesn't make any sense. If I really cared about my height, would I have ever "admitted" it in the first place?

With your admitted violent offender convictions and your admitted small stature, do you think there could have been a correlation between the two resulting in what is known as "little man syndrome" (also known as the Napoleon complex)?

If that were the case, then I'd have been average height in prison, but it's pretty much the same on the wings as it is in the street.

Cuz it wouldn't fly. You look short... Closer to 5' than to 6'. No one would believe that lie and you know it. But add 3-6 inches and maybe u could get away with it. But it's pretty obvious it shorter than 5'7"... Chump

So how tall do you think I am? Spit a number out and I'll just accept that as my height. After that, can we share some personal information about ourselves?
I know you're dying to be normal, Geoff, this isn't fun for you. Your constant negativity cannot be good for you. I

Geoff, have you ever thought of getting a punchbag or going to a boxing gym a couple of times a week?
I promise you it'll be more fulfilling than this. You could hit the pads there and then come on here and be normal.
I know you're dying to be normal, Geoff, it's OK. Forget the smilies and the insults, just take a breather and share something.

Honestly, I think you'd really benefit from it. You're probably a funny guy in real life, it just strikes me as odd that you'd post on here with the sole purpose of trying to make people feel bad about themselves. You spend an inordinate amount of time trying to convince me that I'm just completely evil, but I'm just a normal dude who has got a bit tired of going back and forth with you.
Let's just be friends and interact positively.
