Re: Favourite training music or podcasts to get you through a tough session?
Metal for the heavy stuff, hip-hop to lock in, podcasts for cardio, hype pod on low days, and refresh the playlist often. Loads to try here, cheers everyone - happy lifting.

Favourite training music or podcasts to get you through a tough session?
Friday off-topic fun - what's in your ears when you train? Looking for new playlists and podcasts to freshen up my sessions. Mine's the same three playlists on rotation and I'm bored. Hit me with recommendations.

Total 128. Good shout for travel/no-gym days too, I'll keep this in my back pocket for when I can't get to the gym. In for the week.

Re: Squat depth - is below parallel necessary or is it ego? Genuinely asking
Appreciate all the input. Widening stance, trying a heel, working ankle mobility, and squatting the depth I control for now. Thanks team.

This is reassuring. I was beating myself up over not ATG squatting.

I squat in flat shoes with a fairly narrow stance, maybe that's limiting me.

Re: Squat depth - is below parallel necessary or is it ego? Genuinely asking
So the rounding means I'm forcing depth I don't own yet?

Squat depth - is below parallel necessary or is it ego? Genuinely asking
Honest question, no agenda. Do I need to hit below parallel, or is parallel/just-above fine for building legs? My below-parallel weight is way lower and my back rounds at the very bottom.

Re: Gym wardrobe and shoes - what do you actually train in?
Flats for deadlifts, maybe lifters for squats, comfy clothes otherwise. Sorted. Cheers all, my squats thank you in advance.

So my squishy running shoes are the problem, not me.
