Which is a good things for you… not saying 5/3/1 is bad Im just BORED with it mentally .
WARNING… don’t try this at home. This routine is being preformed by a psychopath with a death wish.
Squats: a few warm up sets
15 x 3 x 375… thats not a type o, 15 sets
After last set had a near death experience. Actually it wasnt that bad in reality I was more fatigued in my upper back and shoulders having to unrack and setting up on all those sets.
Well the reason for me doing multiple sets are many…
One the program is written that way
Plus in reality Ive found that high rep squats dont really improve 1 RM as much as one would think. Also doing lower rep sets one can focus on ones form.
