Titch		Squats: 20 reppers	23-11-2007 @ 19:10
One Sexy MoFo Member 101, 2470 posts	Our leg press is pretty crap, so I was thinking of doing one set of 20-reppers after my PL-style 5 sets of squats as my "assistance" work. Any reasons why this is a s**te idea?

memories , like the corners of my mind .... Member 49, 2298 posts SQ 200, BP 132.5, DL 220 552.5 kgs @ 123kgs UnEq	Sounds like a cool idea. Maybe even slightly narrower high bar's for 20's??

just smoked Ed and Neil - EAT MY GOAL Member 120, 1582 posts	I did 20 reppers a few times. the last time was a couple of years ago and i think i got up to something like 105-110 for 20. i was puffing like a train at the end and the lower back was very sore. i like them as a mental thing really. When you hit 12 or 13 and it is hard work, you have to dig in to get to 20.

I personally prefer the stiffest possible. Member 158, 3110 posts SQ 170, BP 107.5, DL 222.5 500.0 kgs @ 67.4kgs UnEq	10s kill me let alone 20s.

Haven't you done 160kg x 20? Easy Titch. We've all done things we regret. That was in his "naked knees" foolish days. Now he wraps and is on an altogether more righteous path. There is nothing clever about twenty reps as the weight would have to be so light as to make it not worth picking up. But a weight that can only be handled for only one or two reps, well that's the sort of weight that makes women moist
