Back Squat
5 at 65% of your max
3 at 75% of your max
Max set at 85% of your max
Be sure to ask for two spotters on your last set if you plan on going hard.
Use your estimated max from your last session for today’s percentages.
This is part of a two month progression of Deadlift, Strict Press, and Back Squat. Base your percentages on a recent one rep max, or an estimated one. Go for a safe max rep set on the last set, and then use that weight and rep count to estimate a new max for the following week (experienced lifters might want to wait a few weeks before updating their maxes). There are Training Load Charts posted around the gym to help you do this; chat with a coach if you need guidance, and track your weights!
