appreciate the advise. I will report back after 13 weeks of stronglift’s version of Smolov squat routine (in addition to CF, but replacing the CF squat EMOMs with Smolov)[/quote]
If you are using the correct percentages, Smolov is brutal. Make sure you eat enough and sleep enough and be careful also doing cross-fit. The fatigue will accumulate towards the end of the program. Good luck!
JK I work out in a CF box, owner is a friend and my wife is one of the coaches so I get a deal.
That being said, I go to the gym 6 days a week, but you cant do CF metcons 6 days a week. You will lose some BF at first but you will not have gains. Now some Box’s have “athletes” basically guys who do competitions and so they have programs they do to get stronger/endurance/oly lifts. I do not know if your box has this, mine is for soccer moms and skinny fat guys. They do not program or push the athlete training.
So basically I do my own programming. I rotate now due to injuries from strength/cardio/endurance in quarters of the year. I like to do a few CF competitions just for the having a goal, warrior dash’s and tough mudders. BUT I am a meat head at heart and lifted heavy for a long time, God has decided due to injuries that I cant do the PL/strongman stuff any more.
Any how if you are wanting a bigger squat, which I believe all will agree is the benchmark of lifters. This of course could be argued, but to me you can take a 170# kid with a young back and he can DL double and triple his body weight with some consistency and training. That same kid is NOT going to do that with Squat. You are going to have to find a program to increase your squat. I am sure a bunch of guys here can recommend one from 5X5 or 5/3/1 etc.
