My new project is taking all of my attention right now, and I'd love for you to join me for new adventures! It's called Strong...
Read MoreOK! OK! This is, like, totally me when conversations turn to the different types of squats:
“Ooooo! I LOOOOOOOVE front squats. I do! I know everyone hates them, but I LOOOOOOVE them. I watched this video once – the one on Again Faster – and he was totally, like, ‘It’s going to be uncomfortable’ and I was, like, it is totally uncomfortable. But I love them, ya know?! I do!”
And then when everyone says they hate overhead squats, as they inevitably do, I say:
“Ooooo! You know what else I LOOOOOVE? Overhead squats! I mean, they’re so HARD and they’re SO FUN. I love overhead stuff. Snatch, push press, overhead squat… I. LOVE. THEM. ALL.”
Phfft. Yeah.
Now I can’t walk or lift my arms.
Genius.

Yeah, last time I went to OHS I ended up dropping the bar 4 feet onto the pins in the power cage. I got a lot of weird looks for that one.
You're funny! I did a heavy squat day yesterday…and now I can't sit down…or stand up…or walk without people staring…BUT I too like squats of all kinds…I think it's from all my days squatting for shot put training…
