[quote=Anonymous]Don't do squats in the Smith machine. In fact, don't do [i]anything [/i]in the Smith machine. "I fear that I'm going to screw them up and hurt myself." <-- the solution to this is to get a personal trainer to teach you how to do them properly. (True Fitness in McLean are good.) Then you do them with relatively light weights until the muscle memory is ingrained. If you have mastered deadlifts you should be able to master squats! Have you tried [i]front [/i]squatting? I find them less scary than back squats, because if you fail on a front squat you just lean forward and dump it. If you want to work quads without squatting, yes, lunges and leg press machine, and you could also do hex bar deadlifts.[/quote]
