Programming to Maintain Squat while Building Deads
Having done 5x5s and then Texas Method for the past couple of years I feel like I need to put specific emphasis right now on either Squats or Deads one at a time - when I try to move them both up simultaneously they don't seem to move but just had a ton of success building my squat while I was not deadlifting heavy. Now I'd like to work the deadlift for a while, but I'm not sure what to do with my squats so that I keep as much of the gains made as possible. I'd call myself a beginning intermediate lifter - 455 squat, 280 bench and 550 Dead PR (although today I suspect the deadlift is almost 100lbs less) at 195 bw. Thanks!
