Fwiw I stopped doing leg workouts since I left college. I mean I run and jump rope and stuff, but eff that. I hate leg workouts.

One of those guys, huh? :rolleyes:

I mean, I'm glad someone else responded first or his feelings would have gotten hurt really bad, but it seems like such a fanning thing, doesn't it?

My dad just turned 39.

that's amazing and horrifying (unless you're 6).


Not 6, I'm 14.  Thought everyone on this board was in junior high/early high school.  Except for Pissclams who's that cool edgy older kid.

You made an odd name choice for an 11 year old

i squat and do leg workouts sometimes but if any place on my body is going to get left out, it's going to be the legs.

The doc said that they medical community are finding that squats and lunges do long term things to everyone and that continuing to do them is not smart "especially if you are already in your mid thirties".

Sounds completely Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) to me.

that sounds accurate, actually.


Yep.  I'm 27 (turning 28 in late October), and I've recently stopped doing squats because of the toll they were taking on my body.  I could feel a pinched nerve starting to form in my spine from where the squat bar sits on the bridge of the back.  My knees were also becoming increasingly sore.  Even if you have perfect form, squats are still going to compress the spine and put stress on the knees and other joints.  I've switched to more distance running lately, and honestly, I feel a lot better than I did when I was lifting heavy.

Nice work Beems.  I subbed in running for squats and I felt so much better after few weeks.

Yeah, but how are your quads and glutes looking?  Spindly at best is this poster's guess.

Guys, here is my issue.  I hate running for more than like 10 min.  It's so boring.  How do you unplug and forget that you have a functional brain in order to keep running even though it is more boring than basically anything else known to man?

play basketball.

Not running, but you could try a spin class. Lots of folks like those.

That rhyme was pretty legit...almost too legit.

Quads and glutes are just okay.  I play a lot of basketball and tennis along with running so they could be worse but butter.  Definitely not elite.

I would love to play BB, but would have to travel because the other ppl that go to my small town Y suck.

I am going to just keep doing leg workouts and stuff.
