Program Description

The Russian squat routine is a well tested program for developing a stronger squat. But some of the critique it gets is about the intensity, which is why this program has been modified to squating twice a week.

More than expected strength gains
As expected muscle gains
Significant modifications
When first did my 6×2 i figured that i set a too high of a 1 rep max, but as the program progressed I managed to hit every lift. That some solid gains, maybe more mentally than anything, but I am still impressed. Completed the program now and went from 165x1 -> 180x1
