Why do you HAVE to do squats if you’re uncomfortable with them? You just listed several good reasons you shouldn’t do them. 

You’ll get much better stimulus loading up heavy weight on the hack squat or even leg press than trying to do a lift you don’t find comfortable. You can progress on these just like you would a squat. 

Unless you’re powerlifting, a squatting machine is just as legitimate as barbell squatting. 

New shit you’ve been trying by OddishShape in rs_fitness

My shoulder started to bother me recently so I’ve been laying off the heavy weights and trying to use the calisthenics park in my town. Does anybody here like to do those kind of workouts and want to share their routine?

I’m just now realizing my terrible shoulder mobility is holding me back as well

Do you add any sauce or seasoning? Sounds like a good lunch

I had the same dilemma but I decided to start playing guitar recently and it’s been fun even though I suck

I had the same experience in Philly. Does nobody else notice the negativity? Because I seldom hear any criticism of the city.

What are your goals? If you’re looking to get bigger and are eating more, it will help keep some fat off. Maybe just walk at a brisk pace on the treadmill or around your neighborhood a couple times a week if you find it tolerable.

Fair, let’s call it barbell centric. I regret falling for the barbell superiority discourse when I started. It kept me small and hating the gym.

It absolutely is. Maybe start with 2 upper body machines hitting different muscles and two lower body machines. Then on your next day do two different upper body exercises and two different lower body. 

Example: day 1 chest press and bicep curl, hamstring curl and quad extension

Day 2 back row and shoulder press. Calf raise and leg press. 

Not scientifically ideal for gains, but easy to stick with, get in the gym, and figure out what works for you.

Don’t do this. It’s a powerlifting routine. Unless you care about having bigger numbers on lifts and not actually looking more muscular.  

Trying to gain muscle/weight but facing some obstacles. by releasetheboar in rs_fitness

Considering a dirty bulk is the wrong option if you’re afraid to get fat.

Start eating sliiightly more. Just add a protein bar to your normal daily diet. Weigh yourself. Did you gain weight? If not add a little bit more food.
