If you ever start to feel smug about your lifts, remember right now in China, a small woman is squatting more than you.

That dude had hip surgery at the ripe old age of 35 so thanks for proving my point for me

No he didn't, he deadlifted 880lbs last year at age 36.

Or was this after hip surgery?

I saw a large, wide guy, not muscular by any means, *trying* to single arm db row a 105 with like 6" of movement for 3 reps. He proceeded to load up the lat pulldown and with his arms locked essentially rock his body back and forth with body weight. He also kicked out a kid using his flatbench mid-set when he went to the washroom and came back. What an alphashow.

In the meantime, I'm going to take a break from squats and deads, I think I mentioned that earlier. My back and knee felt pretty decent today though, so hopefully that's a sign its nothing too serious. I'm going to focus mostly upper body and channel my bicep curl bro in the meantime. However, is there anything I can do for my legs that aren't as taxing as a squat or deadlift I can do to just sort of keep what strength/muscle I do have in my lower body up? Maybe light leg press? The little I messed with that it seemed to not bother my knee at all. Hack Squats? Perhaps some goblet squats with say 20-40 lb dumbells?

Got a chin/dip belt? Do belt squats, no pressure on the lower back at all.
