   Legs day done!
   
   The nearly 30lb goblet squat is becoming a joke, I really gotta get something heavier soon
   
   Actually... I wonder, how good of a workout shoveling snow is?

     @mangeurdenuage To be fair I've had like a whole ass year of Ring Fit Adventure before that and the squats were my favorite thing. I already had very strong legs. The arms?... Not so much

     @shortstories I don't have weight machines
     
     And I don't think I'm ready for one legged squats

     The legs are so much stronger than arms that it is impossible to hold a heavy enough weight with the arms to make much difference in leg strength doing a goblet squat

     If you are 120 pounds that is only one fourth your body weight

     standing on one leg instead of two doing a squat with no weights is more intense than lifting 30 pounds

     Also using weight machines allows you to add a lot more weight to what your legs lift than you can achieve with holding weights with your arms

     @coolboymew I stopped months ago and went from 40%muscle mass to 30%, I just started to walk again a week and a half again, I'm good I think for that, takes me 10 minutes to do a kilometer easy.
     The less I see my father the better I feel actually.

     Most non disabled non obese non anorexic healthy young adults can do the following throw with proper balance training by a qualified martial arts instructor

     Anyone who can do that can lift twice their body weight on one leg or four times their body weight on two legs

     Within at least a limited range of motion

     I am not liable if someone copies this and gets injured I am simply showing this to demonstrate beginner level strength

     Lift starts 1:56

     This is a exercise library that certified personal trainers use

     You should be able to find leg exercises more difficult than goblet squats but easy enough to do that do not require weights or equipment here
