So maybe I just missed it or forgot (I’m getting to that age) what’s the progression of this program? You did doubles this week and next week triples. So how far will you go? Good work OG.
the original goatster be krushing it

It started out with 2,3,5 ladders than goes to a max double, than doubles with 20lbs less than max double than triples at the same weight and back to 2,3,5 at that weight…retest double -20lbs for double and cycle it again…end of the cycle is max single…I am 3 sessions away from that.
SO my remaining sessions are triples at 265, 2x2,3,5 @265 and than max single…if you want it day by day I would gladly send it to you: just let me know.

MJ- thanks dude!! give’n it what a 179 lb, 51.5 year old goat has!! thanks for stopping in.
Strong work OG (for a 51.5 year old goat). Do you think all the squatting has payed off? Improved lifts, muscle mass, etc.

Thanks my stone carrying friend! Yup on the squats…my 285x2 last week was a 20lb PR. didn’t list it as such because how could 285 be a PR when I bench that freakin’ much!!! …at first the weights seemed heavy having not squatted above 185 in the DJ program…now not so much( starting to get a handle on it)…mind you; I understand we are still talking a sub 300lb squat… the 250’s today for doubles were easy peasey…as far as muscle mass …not sure if I can technically use those words in relation to 179 lbs…but I’ve kept that gain and don’t eat enough to keep a field mouse in fur…there is no doubt I could strap on 10-15 lbs if I eat well and supplemented but thats not me…right now I want to see what I can drag out of a beer swilling 51.5 year old 179lb carcass…there is ABSOLUTELY no way I am at max weights for my frame ( substitute bag o bones if you wish …)!!
Mentally I am much better with squats…now I just need to work it and be patient and thankful for my gains!
I do wish my butt would firm up though…(lol)
Hold up there seems to be some squat love in this thread…do I foresee I thread title change???
