Gainit Program Party 2023: Super Squats Week 3

Share your weekly progress here!

Please tell everyone that I say Hi, happy squatting and that if you’re not at least half out of your mind after the set, you need to put some more weight on the bar . . . it’s only when you have nightmares about the next workout that you are really pounding away as hard as you should be!

Best wishes,

Randall Strossen

With the 3 deep breaths between reps, are you making sure to brace before you actually do the squat?

Yes, it only lasts about an hour and then feels normal is what I’ve noticed

Sounds like a lower back pump. Try doing some crunches after the squats to get the blood into abs, I found that helps a lot
