[200,250x4][300,350x2][400,425,435x1]
- 345 1x2

* i don't know why but it seems that getting rid of the higher rep back up (non-paused reps using 375) a few days ago got my strength overshooting at the moment. the 400-425 felt light again. 435 was not as explosive but definitely repeatable on a daily basis.
* i will get 440-445 this afternoon after a good 4-5hr midday nap and a strong post workout meal. probably back up a bit and not go all heavy.

* light day. no training in the afternoon. work night starts. needed a break anyway. upper front clavicle area and the surrounding muscles feeling beat from the 345 front squats.

[200,250,300x2][350,400,425,440x1]
- 325 1x2

* plan to skip the afternoon training did not happen. took a strong post workout meal and a good midday nap. wrapped lower right VMO area because it feels better like that + the compression tights i wear for recovery. woke up and felt like lifting 440.
* 445-450 would be doable but very tiring. 440 was just right.  back up front squats not too heavy to get better recovery. 345 doable but will probably make my shoulders hurt again. doing more BW dips to get more blood into that area being hammered by the front squats.

* slept 6am-12pm. did my morning training. 45min session. 425x1 was not heavy. lifting this again in 5-5.5hr from now will make it feel lighter by 20-30lbs. probably go to 440 again depending on how sharp i feel when i wake up again later. repeatable paused reps doesn't get my VMO area tender. i still put compression wraps on my right VMO area while i sleep. compression makes me feel like im recovering faster.
* front squats kept light at 325. still resting the shoulders, wrists and everything else that get hammered while trying to keep the weight in my front shoulders.

* 440x1 was max for today. need more recovery. will take it light the next couple of days. no back up front squats. shoulders are tired. did some this morning so that should take care of the daily lift.
* did not get a nap between the workouts today. ~ 5 hours in between the heavy lifts. tried to sleep but the 6hr morning sleep was enough. il probably get more tired later but nothing another deep sleep can't fix.

* slept 8:30am-3pm. felt well rested and recovered but lifted like crap. 425 felt heavier than yesterdays 440x1 on the afternoon workout. if i have time to lift at 10pm today, IMO il get another 440-445x1 paused. i have work so il just hope my recovery really gets going. il have another single training session tmrw.. i'm actually looking forward to days were i train 2x now. 425 feels heavier the more time i rest between lifting it.
* back up front squats were felt heavier also on the shoulders. will stay with 325 until i feel good again and blast up to 350-365.

And aren't you almost 30 years old? When did you start squatting?



Go on ANY bodybuilding forum and everyone there will tell you you can't squat 2.6x your bodyweight starting at such a late age (24?) and low weight... lol yeah okay.

^ yes.. im ancient. turning 31 this july.

i'm at repeatable 2.6BW paused full squat right now (440@170), as long as i train in the morning and a good 2-3 midday nap.. id pause lift 440x1 on afternoon training as a daily maintenance max lift with +5-10 as max. i'm not a professional athlete (well training to be one..) but IMO, the human body is capable doing a lot more.. (even without taking PEDs offcourse).

* slept for 9:30am-2pm. lifts were not as bad as yesterday. cut the rest time to 3mins on sub 350 and 5mins on the heavier reps today.
* front squats are difficult for the shoulders again. not improving here.

imagine if he started squatting at 15 years old and then grew through puberty while squatting and surging with testosterone... he'd easily be at 3x bw at 30 years old like nothing. Probably max out at a 45" standing vertical.

^ i was a road bike cyclist in my teens. built big legs with low cadence and the big gears. only way i think anybody can do a mid-high 40s SVJ is to be at low-mid 160s while pause full squatting high400s/low 500s.. at 5-6%BF...

so yes.. ~ 3BW athletic squat max thats not really a grinding rep.. more like a very explosive start with a bar speed decay thats slow enough so that when the bar speed comes to a halt, the rep is already at top lockout.

* could have gotten the 425x1 paused if i attempted it again. was not that weak on the first failed rep.. just did not have good explosion from the pause and did not want to use too much effort grinding the rep. did not want to use too much energy trying to push it this morning when i know id lift it a lot easier later. just used this morning training to get legs ready.

* strong post workout meal and 3-4hrs resting/shower. back to gym at lunch time. 425x1 was not very explosive. stopped there. back up front squats still resting at 325s - not very difficult this time. shoulders starting to feel stronger.

There's that guy who squats high bar and has ~500 lbs at ~160-170 lbs bodyweight... he's on the beast thread but I can't find him.
