> you should prob do more sets with heavier weight instead of moving up in 20lb incriments. like maybe 2 45’s on each side (225) for 8 then add a 25 to each side (275) for 3 sets of 6, then maybe a set of 3 45’s on each side (315) for a set of 3 to 5 depending on your stamina, which is prob pretty good with the way uve been going. sometimes when you change it up your body will respond very well in terms of strength and growth.

I just like to work my way up I guess. Once I start lifting a heavier set I usually up the minimum weight. So far Ive been pleased with the results.

I use the squat rack, not the assisted thing- only free weights. Im not a little guy.
