YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL SQUATZ Anonymous
Hey /fit/, I'm having trouble with my squats and lunges, without a rack at the gym, I usually have to lift the bar and get it over my head to get into the proper position, needless to say, after a few sets, this gets dangerously laborious.
Would doing hack squats instead have any different effect? (Not working as hard etc?)

I find squats impossible to do for some reason my knees hurt when I have my feet parallel and they are really uncomfortable same with lunges really.

I get that as well, invest in some knee supports, a cheap pair cost me £10 and they make the world of difference. Also, are you making sure you don't let your knees go beyond your toes?

fuck weighted squats do jumpies... and a lot of them (no reps or sets either... those are for pansies... start with 150 and vary from there... jump for height...

in agreement. But try body squats too if the jumps are too difficult.

Sounds like what I get, and if so, braces do help a lot. Same with jogging and cycling really, anything using the knees a lot!

squats: feet should point 30° outwards.
Knees follow! Not parallel. Think of shitting on the ground.

if you are a college student go to your school's L-ATC (the athletic trainer) they may be able to tell you more specificly if something is wrong, i would but i'd have to play with your leg for a bit and that isn't an option....

other options are PT or general practitioner (MD)

in the meantime use a brace
