everyday squat??

**morfeuss** · 08-07-2004, 03:58 AM

i was wondering what happens when im doing squats 5 times weekly mon-friday? will it grow or become catabolic??i go high...monday back squat, tuesday front and so on..
and also if i start to do soem reps of 5x5 in pyramid will that make me grow? or is that for strength??
thnx

I'd say thats overkill to say the least.. To help strength yes low reps,heavy & minimal rest. Hopefully the increase strength will yield some mass (should) but is no garrantee

I couldn't even do that......once evey 5 days or week is good

Doing them on a daily basis is a waste of time and energy. Continue that for long enough and an injury is inevitable.

what is ur goal size or strength...when i tried bringing my bench up i was doing flat bp two times a week on chest day and back day and it started improving weekly but five times a week? i think 5 times a week would probably put a real kick in ur progress

if you work them hard enough theres no way you could work them the next day!

Yup. Also your knees will go to sh*t faster than you can blink.

Yall got that recovery?? Your muscles grow when youre NOT in the gym. Veddy veddy bad, this idea.

thanks, i doubted that, but its hard to go and make a f***ing coach understand that! i like squats, but moreover; if this part of the body is getting attacked frequently, won't it try to develop more get bigger??? , well i guess then the rest time comes, maby i should sleep 20 hrs and train 2 hrs.
hehe knee pain...hmm...im carrying ths pain since im 13...with all the squats.
i dont do max everyday but doing 60-85 % daily.and max on friday... can anyone give me a provessional link frm which i may show the coach that doing that everyday is not a good thing...
