Do you even lift bro?

[Mark Bolam]

Oh I’ve done that a few times mate.

DOMS in calves is like nothing else.

 

2 sets tonight, no weight.

 

Easing in slowly.

Get the Mrs on your back and do donkey calf raises Mr Bolam

I’ll ask her.

I’m worried it might turn her on though.

Ast last you've already got the saddle and reins for it though.

No more bareback for this cowboy Joe.

You know me, safety first.

Don't blame you, it's the reason you're outnumbered 5:1 in your house!

Ok so it's fair to say i'm hooked on squats now. Day 3 of doing them and i was wondering if it was ok/safe to do them everyday? I rotate which body parts i do each day with a rest day or two per week.

You could do them every day but you wouldn't notice to much gains after the initial newby shock. You should be careful of over training any body part. I'd say squat twice a week if you're that keen Silky or like every 3 days. Why not try back squats Monday and front squats Thursday. Hits the body slightly different

If you are able to squat every day as a beginner, you're not working hard enough. I use the term beginner to describe your experience with squatting. Seasoned profession weighlifters will squat near enough every day, but they've got years and years of experience under their belt. 

 

By all means squat regularly, but if you maintain a high volume throughout your cycle then make sure to have regular deload weeks. Otherwise, squat regularly, but don't go heavy too often.

Thanks.
