I had a guy come up to me last night and comment that I was doing the squats wrong. I said That is good as I was not doing squats! -------------- Less Talk, More Chalk!

A poor good morning, but still. -------------- Iron and chalk. Pain is only temporary, it is in your mind. If you can still walk, then you can still run.

That is one lift I had never seen done nor heard of, and with bent knees would look like a very poorly done squat. Or maybe I did see somebody and just never said anything, as I thought it was just someone doing a bad squat.. lol.
