Tfw I'm all femur

Josiah Howard
Leg press or hack squats
Benjamin Taylor
so, you've noticed a slight quirk in your anatomy and you've made a decision that all squats must stop immediately and you're asking us to come up with a sane answer to this ridiculus request?
I dunno man, if you're making rash decisions like this on unconfirmed anecdotal evidence then maybe lifting isn't for you.
Brody Young
single leg work like split squats and lunges, leg press and hack squats are also good possibilities depending on equipment limitations
it's fairly well understood outside of the squat-dogma of scrawny internet lifters that squats are not as effective for long femured lifters if the goal is training the quads
Evan Cook
If you feel like you know better than us then why ask?
Jose Rodriguez
I'm not the OP, which should have been obvious from the context of the post, brainlet
Chase Campbell
Ok.
Aaron Long
Get lifting shoes then. Solved my 6'2 long femur problems.
Adrian Johnson
fuck I'm not even tall. 5'11". but I can't for the life of me get to below parallel and keep the bar over my midfoot without rounding.
Robert Hughes
I'm 6'2" with really long legs and femurs, I found that widening my stance seemed to help alot with squats. Keep your toes pointed outward and make sure your knees track over them... but squats are still my weakest relative lift.
