You seem to be approaching this correctly, so we can't really tell you what will work without knowing what you respond to better. You'll have to try...

You will note that one topsets and two 90% backoffs, plus three 90% "medium" sets on Friday, is the same volume as the Texas method, just distributed...

The fact that this is the wrong place to ask this aside, what kind of fuckass program are you doing that uses percentages of 1rms on *different...

1" just about the difference between a low bar and a high bar squat. The main consideration when placing the bar on the back is that the bar rests...

You describe the feeling as "sore." Is it so "sore" that you can't train?

The easiest thing would seem to just be moving the heavy pulling to your medium (or even light) squat day. The book isn't explicit about this but...

This is exactly what is described in the 4 day split in the Grey book.

Yeah, Chase CLEARLY got to his press by leaving pounds on the table. I bet he could also add weight if he tried keto!

Like I said: everything works okay for the first six weeks.

The squats are high and the back is soft, but people have lifted far heavier far more stupidly and not had any problems.

Why doesn't walking make your deadlift go up, if it works the glutes and hamstrings?

The hunger you experience from lifting weights is part of the process of adding muscle. It isn't a side effect. It's THE effect.

"Active recovery" is a myth. Exercises programmed as "active recovery" are usually just a minor bump of training stimulus to prevent detraining...

Your stance needs to be wider and your upper back needs to be rigid. Everything everyone else said is right. This looks like one of those meme...

While the skill floor for squats is indeed higher than a leg press, the skill ceiling for both is relatively low. You drive your squat up by getting...

This makes a bit more sense. But those do sound like some awfully weak bones: 67.5 kg is not particularly heavy. Just do everything as you were...

There is no such thing as a strong guy with a weak squat (provided he has, you know, LEGS).

It's a month. The fiddly details don't really matter. Just get as much work done each day as you can. By the time you've "settled" on what approach...

I would actually be very interested to hear even an anecdote about a person's squat going up due to work on the leg press for longer than a few weeks...

The only thing I can think is that you are talking about loading the bar with less than 135 pounds, and in the absence of bumper plates. It...
