Add an other squat day first and see how you react. What kind of programming are you using?


well i guess that can be my problem really considering well, i dont have one. i just log what i did the previous squat workout, and depending on how i feel, try to hit more reps with the highest amount of weight i did or add extra sets with the heaviest weight i used the workout before. or ill go for a new rep pr with new weight and then try to hit it for a couple sets and repeat. if i was gonna start a legitimate program i'd probably go to 5/3/1

edit: i also squat every 4 days usually. just ends up working that way

Just for you! Should be pretty easy but it would help you get used to squat twice a week using a DUP style of programming.

u wouldnt recommend going heavier in a lower rep range for multiple sets? more powerlifting-ish? u'd recommend higher rep range? or is this strictly because its volume

You don't always go ''Heavy'' in powerlifting. After that bloc I'd have you squat heavier for a few weeks.

i was gonna say after that i wanna throw in some singles or doubles heavy haha

my only concern for higher rep squats like 8-10 that is form breakdown when fatigue sets in

I wouldn't worry as form will get better as you get used to the increase in frequency
