    Default Weights on volume days

    I had a question concerning the weight increase on volume days. Since I switched to an advance programming, I used the 5x5 squat you described in an article where every set is independent of the other four. I then calculated the percentages for the volume days the rest of the week of the heaviest set. My question is, if my heaviest set did not go up but I finished all my reps the rest of the week, should I add weight on the volume days even if my heaviest set did not go up?

    Thanks in advance

    I'd focus on bringing up the back end rather than increasing load too much on the front end
