Burning questions edition.
What's on your mind?
Wondering about CiCo? Want to start counting calories but don't know how? Need to know how to build habits?
This is the place to ask!

Made some big progress last couple weeks on my squat. Found some PT videos involving bands targeting my weak shins, and follow a 20 min warmup that opens up hips and stretches all parts of my ankle. Now no pain when I go heavy! I’ve stagnated for years so I’m just surprised that I was able to progress instead of settling with never doing squats again

Diet is on point right now honestly. Every meal has been protein + veg or protein + fruit, BUT NEED MORE IDEAS.
Got a link? I can't squat (without a weight), and I'd really like to be able to. I'm fairly certain the problem is in my ankles, as I can squat okay when I elevate my heels
shin splints and squat PT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSYrcj4rfF8&t=240s probably not the best out there, but is working for me now
full squat mobility routine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqF90pMpjb4 they have a list of exercises at the end if you want to printout
I'm probably gonna check this one out soon and add to my list- supplemental squat warmup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZlmSNrMBP8
Let me know if you all have other warmup routines for squats. If anything it's taught me I need to 1) start very slow and 2) actively strengthen AND warmup my ankles and shins every time if I want to progress.
Thanks!
