Now that I'm measuring volume, I'm curious if anyone has any idea of what it means (LOL).
My squat volume the past few sessions:
10/17/2022 = 10,925lbs
10/24/2022 = 10,725lbs
10/31/2022 = 7,805lbs
11/15/2022 = 12,360lbs
11/21/2022 = 12,585lbs
11/28/2022 = 16,595lbs
In theory, if I add 5lbs to each warm up and working set then my next squat session would be 17,065lbs.
It's an interesting way to track my output and effort applied but I'm not sure what meaningful information I can truly pull from this. Is there a point of diminishing returns? Is it just an accountability tool? Does it matter at all since in theory my entire goal is to increase weight?
Maybe 2nd squat day per week should be higher intensity and half the volume?
so maybe Friday looks like this:
and next monday looks like this?
