Member 1419, 2281 posts SQ 175, BP 105, DL 240 520.0 kgs @ 82kgs UnEq	Post Edited: 27.01.2011 @ 22:23 PM by tz1127 On my 13th squat session in 3 weeks, or 4th squat session of the week- I've hit the easiest PB of my life, a deep 185kg (semi-raw ) Squat with loose wraps that flew up like a 100kg squat. Interesting how the body works, without peaking, and with every indicator point to a s**t session(allergies flared up, sore back/hips/elbow, bad sleep, no motivation), I've actually had one of the best session of my life; whereas I have had times when everything point to a good session then missing all the easy weights. No matter what, frequent squatting definetly works well, I highly recommend it I will be sqautting every day from now on, even if its just the bar. I have no doubt I will hit 200kg wrap-only squat in no time.

My opinions have run their course Member 694, 3112 posts	it's nice to have a good day mate... haven't tried squatting every day or even more than once a week... but should it ever come up in one of my competitions I might change that well done on the 185

To be honest I have been quite disciplined in recovery work and haven't done much but squat and bench, with 1 speed deadlift session a week. My only assistance was pause squats and hammer curls (rehab/prehab). If I was training many different movements like you strongmen do I won't ever squat daily.

Obvious Juicer Member 1613, 1036 posts SQ 185, BP 140, DL 220 545.0 kgs @ 66kgs UnEq	yes, squatting everyday is a really fast way to get strong. I was thinking in going back to daily squatting just a few moments ago. Currently i'm doing 2 times a week, but i feel that i need more frecuency for some reason. Good to hear about the PR and the daily squatting!

Its amazing for "greasing the groove" per se. I was coming off a heavy equipped phase 5 weeks ago and was struggling to squat 110*5 and very nearly failed 130.

Better not be greasing your grove in public, its bad enough you told me you deadlift and squat commando

Maybe you should try it too - without that extra bit of weight you probably won't have to dump that raw squat (20kg below your max) on your spotter's knee.

conventional all the way ! Member 1980, 1201 posts SQ 217.5, BP 137.5, DL 255 610.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq	I recently changed to a much higher frequency and volume programme, got to say it feels much better! Will be aiming for a new PR in 3 weeks. Definitely something I will continue with in one form or another.

Do you go as heavy as you can, i.e. only just able to finish??

Feasting on humble pie. Member 51, 1692 posts SQ 227.5, BP 185, DL 272.5 685.0 kgs @ 90.4kgs UnEq	Thing said:how would you set out your squatting plan so that you don't cause burn out I've been squatting and deadlifting loads lately Neil, this is the thing you do burn out but you just keep doing it! You lift when shattered and every thing hurts and your body adapts. Few days rest and your ready for big squats

Member 1419, 2281 posts SQ 175, BP 105, DL 240 520.0 kgs @ 82kgs UnEq	I guess others with more way more experience and strength then me can explain better. But what works for me is to lift moderate weights with perfect form/speed. E.g. 60-80% for a few triples everyday and not lifting to limit. On average I probably lifted 50-60 working reps in a week at an average intensity of 70-75%, which is definetly not excessive, esp if spreadout over 5 days. I know its possible to do the same amount of work in even 2-3 days but I feel spreading it out allows to lift the weight much faster (hence more force production) and fresher. Just my experience and I guess those much stronger then me will have something more useful to say.

Member 1980, 1201 posts SQ 217.5, BP 137.5, DL 255 610.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq	I'd go along with Moz on that to some degree - although I am not lifting the weights some of you guys are, I guess it's all relative. To begin with I was sore and aching, I squat 3 times per week for 5-8 sets a time..I got used to it within 3-4 sessions, doesn't feel bad at all now.

a large fingered spastic that demolishes plant Member 89, 31706 posts SQ 260, BP 220, DL 290 770.0 kgs @ 142kgs UnEq	i have always thought if i could train everyday that there would be some element of squats, and deadlift being used. in that i think going as heavy as you can could burn you out quicker, but as stated the body adapts to its work load over time. then i have thought of alternating deadlift and squats every day in that you could do squats to a heavy single with speed deadlift the next day then speed squats the next and heavy deadlift the day after. but basically this is all you would do with some full body assistance to get the blood flowing through the body. if your careful and rest appropriately i don't see why you can squat every day as the olympic professionals seem to do this.
