Wait to squat after a max effort deadlift workout?


I used to deadlift on saturday, and squat monday and thursday.

but my squat feels horrible on monday...since my deadlift has started going up every week, I can barely get my usual weights up. Should I just switch to one time a week?

Deadlift tuesday, squat fridays (or saturdays, it depends)

Edit: You are probably having trouble because you have 2 squat days and a deadlift day. You are most likely going too heavy on one of the squat days. I mean come on, squat thursday, deadlift saturday, and expect a good squat workout on monday?

Either a week or two weeks.
One of the many great things about the conjugate system.

Good post above.

I squat twice a week and deadlift on one of those days as well.

Squat Monday, dl and squat Friday.

I went pretty heavy thursday, so I guess this is the problem. I will probaly change the squat to wednesday and do a lighter workout on deadlift day.

i do it once a week, but i think you should do it as soon as your legs stop hurting

I squat and deadlift once a week, and I do them both on the same day.
