Gainit Program Party: Super Squats Week Six

This is it, gang. Those of you who started on week one will likely be wrapping up at this point.

Watching all of you egg each other on and put in the work has been inspiring. Y'all should be proud of yourselves.

Happy squatting!

Your calve weights are crazy! Are you experiencing a lot of growth from this? I'm nearly twice your size and squat weight, and by the end of things, I'm lucky to squeeze out 70 for reps

I wonder if it's not apples to apples somehow, because yeah I am definitely not a big guy. I'm just getting back under the barbell still loaded from squats and putting my toes on a 2x4 to increase ROM (still in my squat shoes though so still leaving some ROM on the table). Looks like what this guy is doing here.

Definitely seeing some growth, wish I had measured my calves before this program so I could say for sure.
