Not really, there's a substitute for any lift and this is coming from somebody that squats 3x a week. I'm not opposed to them.
You talk some chit tho for somebody that supposedly squats this much, you'd think somebody like that would know better.

I mean, not really. Most people are limited more by their back/core strength than by their legs when it comes to squats, so squats don't even let you develop your legs as much as a combination of other exercises

Good for developing glutes I suppose, although so are other exercises

I like how you won't post your shirtless physique tho, with all these claims about NEEDING squats/deadlifts to have a good physique lol

Bud, you've tried to make this argument several times

You've tried to show pictures of guys like dan green and Kirk K who, although LEAN, are not aesthetic to most people (Too blocky, big waist, lack of taper, legs too big, short)

When people suggest that training for strength is not ideal from an aesthetics perspective, you deflect

Not a good luck

I’ve never tried to make that argument at all.

Aesthetics is literally completely subjective. If you want to get right down to it, the entire aesthetics discussion is irrelevant.

Are those different movements providing more benefit than the squats did? If so, keep doing why you’re doing brah.

Squats, hack squats, and leg press always seemed to be more than enough for me.

Unless you do them for knee health, leg extensions seem pretty fuking useless.

That's because your core/back will almost always give out before your legs will in a squat, making it a sub-optimal exercise for training your legs

honestly yes, split squats/RDL/leg press/hacks , etc , I'm able to do higher reps so more volume in for the targetted muscle, while the squat is overall fatiguing

leg extension is a new thing to me, used to never do them, I just stared doing 4 x sets of 15 at the end of a lower body session, it's a good way to hit the medial part of the quad..my knee feel fine so far

yeah but even then, the more fatigued I got, my technoque in the squat would change, so when quad tire for example it turns into more of a goodmorning squat so the glute can help.

i won't lie squatting for the last few years have built my lower body really well, but I think the focus for me now has changed so i'm happy to focus on hypertrophy

I have definitely done all of these at certain points of time. Right now, I still do RDLs and split squats.

I deadlift twice per week and do split squats on one day and RDLs on the other.

Same brah, I do them but I hate them. I'm tall and lean, not the best combo for heavy squatting. I do 245. I'm also old as fuk so theirs that as well.

I <3 squatting because no other lift taxes the CNS like back squats

A single max pull(s) sometimes gets me there but not near as consistently as heavy squatting
If they could bottle up the feeling after a big squat day I could probably quit the gym altogether




And fwiw, the only times I've injured myself it has been with sub maximal loads, <50% warm-ups, speed/rep work etc
