Why doesn't anyone at commercial gyms squat properly? Seriously!!
There's that many posts on Facebook and other shit about shitty 1/4 depth squats and squatting deep, why don't people know?
I heard a PT training someone in the squat rack beside me actually say "too low" to their trainee, then he commented on the depth of my squat being unsafe!!!
It baffles me

It is intradasting.
If you google (images) squat, 95% of these images taken are of people squatting to high, (hip above the knee)
My thoughts are that it's more often than not people loading too much on the bar.
From the top of the squat to parallel position your bum, quads and hamstring are active, past parralel it's the glutes and quads only doing the mechanical work, big muscles, doing most of the work, causing most pain, hammies switched off.
A muscle is strongest in its contracted position, at the bottom of the squat, the two prime movers, glutes and quads are not.

You know you have lost your way around the gym when you go to pick something up and on the way up you smash your head so hard on the barbell you knock it of the hooks! Fuark!
crossfit junkie woman this morning benching 10kg, flat, 5deg, 10deg, 15deg, 20deg or something, sets every notch up on the bench, then when she finally got off, proceeded to setup 2 benches, DB's everywhere and go from peck machine, some type of press on one bench, and decline something else i can't remember exactly, was busy squatting...
