Back Squat

5-10-15-20 reps

Post loads to responses.

The objective here is to do the 5-10-15 reps with relatively light weight and determine what your 10 rep max would be. Then take what you consider your 10 rep max and do a set of 20 without racking the weight. This is a lesson on intensity. Who can take their 10 rep max and push themselves to gut out a total of 20 full range of motion (deep) squats?

Compare to July 21, 2009.

    5 X 135 lbs

    10 X 185 lbs

    15 X 165 lbs

    20 X 205 lbs

    Didn’t really know how to strategize on this one.

  2. Back Squat
    5-10-15-20 reps

    5 x 135
    15 x 185
    10 x 225
    12 x 275 (supposed to be my 20 but failed miserable)
    7 x 275 there is a reason that my 10 rep max is my 10 rep max, if I could do it 20x it would be my 20 rep max! no excuses just wussed out.
