what is your foot position on squats?

[nuknuk]

Which do you prefer? Are you stronger with one versus the other?

I have gone from a regular stance to a really wide, and am liking it. Can tell my inner quads are filling out, plus they are sore there also, which they never were before.

I go wide as well for the same reason. I have done them every way and even alternated foot positions like doing 3 wide and three close.

I normally go a little bit wider than arm pit width. I haven't really played with foot position on squats. Maybe I'll have to switch it up and see how that hits for me.

I usually stand just about shoulder width and that's my strongest. I occassionally do a closer narrow stance and I like that as well.

I have noticed that with a wider stance my knees don't bother me as bad as with a shoulder width stance. Don't really know why but it helps.

I have noticed the same thing.
