    Thoughts on Smolov Jr for Squat? As of now squat rep max is:

    320x4 @ bw of 180#

    Is this program best suited for intermediate athletes?

    thanks

    No experience with any of the smolov stuff. I know others have used it with great success. Sorry I couldn't be of more help

    I put 5 lbs on my press, 10 on bench with Jr. I ran regular smolov for squat though. If your not at least intermediate I think its a waste of time. There are far less painful and faster ways to get stronger.
