Volume squats on hlm
Referring to this very helpful article:
Minimum Effective Dose for Maximum Strength, Part 2
MED Step 4: Texas Method or HLM Transition states 3-5 sets of squats on Monday.
I understand that you shouldn't reduce volume in this transition stage.
I'm trying to understand whether it's better to start with 3 sets on Monday ?
This would reduce weekly volume, so perhaps add 2 back off sets on Friday, distributing the volume squats across 2 sessions ?
What experiences have people had making this transition, have they found that, even with a sensible reduction in weight, 5 sets just becomes to much to complete and/or severely adversely affects the deadlift ?
Does moving 2 squat sets to Friday as backoffs undermine the stress/recovery in some way ?
Appreciate all experiences with this transition and any successful or unsuccessful amendments they've tried.
