  • Shoulder sorted itself out. Happy days...

    However...

    I'm leaning too far forward on my squats despite trying to watch myself in mirrors. One of the gym trainers came over tonight to warn me.

    If I use a Smith machine I'm guessing that, as it moves the bar strictly vertically, it'll help me learn the right form. Or should I practice unloaded squats more until I get it right without mechanical aid?

  • Also smith machine is ok and will help you build strength in your legs keeping a good posture but because you ‘locked’ to the machine it won’t give you all the benefit that a squat would. Same applies to leg press machine.
