If you cant do a proper bodyweight squat, work on your mobility. If you can and it doesnt hurt, add a barbell. Work up slowly from there. Address imbalances and mobility issues that could cause pain.

"maybe something will get better on it's own accord" is a fairly terrible mindset to approach anything with. Set goals and fix anything that's in between you and them. Keep doing a proper squat to whatever depth with whatever weight you can and then dedicate some time to improving that.
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

things dont get better on their own. you are just going to be ignoring things until you get hurt again and realize you wasted weeks or months. addressing mobility aggressively is the best thing you can do, especially if you are closer to 30 than 18.


i recommend front squats to everyone. less chance to hurt your back and still work your quads as well as a back squat but w less weight. i do high rep goblet squats or those crossfitty wall ball squats at the end of a workout after hitting my quads really hard with the exercises before, oftentimes having started with front squats or bulgarian squats that day. walking lunges always great. i cannot recommend GHRs highly enough, since I do them like 3-4 times a week now. deficit trap bar deadlifts are also a pretty good leg workout.
The unrealistic sound of these propositions is indicative, not of their utopian character, but of the strength of the forces which prevent their realization.

Hey guys, my schedule force me to run at around 7:30pm, which is kind of annoying because I don't know when to eat.

Should I eat before ? If yes, when ? 1 hour is enough ? Or after, but that's kindof late since I come back at around 8:30pm and I prefere cooking.

I don't want to feel bloated when running, but I don't want to lack energy either. I used to run in the mid-afternoon (4pm), so I had my meal long before, and something like a banana before.

So, should I run before or after a run ? If before, how long before.

btw last nite i was desperate for some chocolate and made the mistake of checking marks daily apple before going to get some then went and bought 2 bars of "90% cocoa" dark chocolate, not only does it taste like absolute shit but apparently i'm allergic to it and sneeze after every square and now it looks like i've taken a shit all over my desk, my bed, my floor and my white tracksuit top and bottoms. after that i went out and bought 2 mcdonalds instead

When I used to be a runner, I would be able to get by with eating whatever I wanted so long as it was ~3 hours or so before the run. Any closer and I would have to be conscious of the amount and the fat/carb/protein content. Too many variables to really suggest something though without knowing what the rest of your schedule is like, and what kind of food you're talking about eating.

For the front squat, is it ok to use the crossed arms to support the bar? The other way is not very comfortable even only two fingers.

no, that means your mobility sucks and you need to work on it.

I disagree. I use straps wrapped around the bar, with one end pointing up and I grab the ends.

It's not the worst thing in the world but you should aim to progress towards being able to do it the other way.

So I eat something at noon, usually eggs/bacon, or a sandwich if I don't have the time. At 4pm I eat a fruit, like a banana.
Recently I'm running with one of my roommate, but she's only avaible at around 7:30pm, that's really late and I feel somewhat hungry.

Eat some actual food there. I suggest 2-4 eggs. If you need something that doesn't require cooking, get some type of nuts.

Why not eat a full meal at ~4pm then?

I don't really have the time to cook at 4PM. Plus the guy above sai I should eat a couple of egg at that time, that much is managable, I'll give it a go.

Is it generally easier to lose muscle in your legs than upper body? Whenever I take a break I notice my squat is harder to get back than bench.

Nope, that's going to be mostly a result of genetics and daily routine. My chest strength goes very quickly outside the gym whereas my legs remain pretty steadily strong throughout a break.

I could probably take a break from legs forever and still squat 315 ten times.

Squatted up to 440, about a billion clean + clean + jerks up to 295, rows and presses. Felt good to move some weight around. I've been slacking off the last few weeks (maybe longer) between getting a new job, traveling, and rugby. I never would have let that be a reason to skip a workout a year ago though. Time to get back at it.
