You put on 5 lbs, das great. Your shoulders look bigger in the other pic, me thinks its time to put some meat on those legs.

I can only squat about 50 lbs on the smith machine. I might be able to go heavier, but I am scared it will hurt my knees in the long run. I also deadlift twice per week...what else can you recommend in terms of training?

Yes, eat would definitely be one of them.

Dont squat on the smith machine.. use a freebar, because the smith is bad for your knees.

It hurts my neck a lot...and I'm scared because there's no support (in terms of a spotter)...the smith machine is...safer

Does your gym have a power rack? If so, just use that and set the stop at the proper level to catch the bar if you "fail." If it really bothers your neck a lot, you could use a towel or a pad...

I'll try it, but I don't see the difference. Won't I be using less weight because there will be no one/machine to spot me?

You have some excellent development Jaim. Keep eating and keep up the good work.
