That’s not a bad habit at all. Only macho tough guys say they don’t do it.

Wait, I think I misread what you wrote.

Doing 10x3, last monday

If you mean 10 reps and 3 sets, it’s actually pretty much always written SETSxREPS. So, 10x3 would mean 10 sets of 3 reps (which, coincidentally, is actually another pretty good set/rep scheme).

squatting as low as i can, i don’t have much weight on the bar yet, since i’m used doing them only with BW. 50 kg. i want to do the whole rom, it seems to have helped my kneepain/removed the crack sound that i had when i started arts/and squatted younger to the 90 degree angle.

Yep, definitely squat through the full ROM. You’ll get more muscle recruitment and less knee stress, so, win-win.

But that’s not really much of a program, just token work on the basic lifts. Check out 5/3/1.

Beyond 5/3/1 Program

A lot of guys in the Combat forum seem to like the 2 or 3 day a week plan, as it allows plenty of time to recover from lifting and focus on martial arts.
