Westside Barbell Squat and Deadlift Assistance work

[Nishnimudni]

I just started the Westside Barbell Conjuguate method and was wondering, do I only do squat assistance work on squat days and DL work on DL days or do both assistance work for both exercises.

Well there really aren't squat and deadlift days in conjugate. Both days are designated as lower body. So you should have some lower assistance that builds both squat and deadlift, things like goodmornings, stiff-legged deadlifts, front squats, etc. And then more bodybuilding-type lower body stuff for higher reps after you get done with your main and supplemental movements.

if you can, read the cube book. it uses many aspects of westside but worded in a much more human friendly manner. you should then be able to understand just how to run westside and for that matter a lot of strength based programs.
