W Weapon X New member Sep 6, 2001 #51 Okay, I'll reveal my ignorance (not fpr the first time, I'm sure!): 1.) I am short - 5'5" and 165lbs. 2.) When squatting without any weight whatsoever, not even a bar, my knees hurt Should I avoid Squats? What is correct form for us shorties? Wide stance? How wide?
