Saturday I photographed the Vermont State Youth Wrestling Tournament and was up and down squatting from 10 am till 6 pm basically nonstop and I'll tell ya my legs are so sore it hurts to wal and kills to sit down or stoop to pick something up ......... I won't count them but I probably did 1000 squata that day ........ Lord help me!

Does anyone get where you feel like they aren't working? I did 200 yesterday and I would have thought I'd be a little sore this morning. But, nothin'. It makes me feel like I should have done more or I'm doing them wrong.

Yep, this can happen. A few things to try:

- make sure you are squatting low enough. Try to make it so when you're at the bottom of the movement, your thighs are parallel with the floor. Be careful of your knees though.

- Do them slower, or variable speed. Do a squat for a count of 4 on the way down, 4 four on the way up and you should feel it. Do 10 or so like that, then ten or so super fast ones to work the muscles differently.

- Add some hand weights to increase resistance.

Hope that helps
