Performance (Leg focused):

Tip: SET ACCUMULATION

The back squat progression is very simple (yet effective) for the next six weeks. The progression started with 3 sets of 5 reps. You will add one set each week for the next two weeks, finishing with 5 sets of 5 reps. You will then transition to 3 sets of 3 reps. You will follow the same pattern and add one set per week for the next two weeks, finishing at 5 sets of 3 reps. Throughout the first three weeks and the latter three weeks, you will keep the weight the same as the sets progress. This is another form of progressive overload that is utilized in strength and conditioning to progress outside of the standard progression that includes adding more weight onto the bar.
