Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Squatting while dieting
« on: July 20, 2011, 08:32:59 am »
Recently I started cutting and switched to 531 from SS.
On my leg days I do some plyos as well as some accessory exercises.
I like the program except I feel I could do better by squatting more than once a week(twice would be optimal).
I don't like the option of squatting(light or heavy) on the DL day for couple different reasons.
How could I program it if I would like to squat twice a week while dieting( i will be ditching the 531). The goal is to maintain or even increase my squat.
Should I do a light day and a heavy day? Or same weight both days for either 3,3,3 or 5,3,1 at 80%,85%,90%?
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
