How many reps are ideal for squats
Being all that I can be is simply not good enough. I will be better.
Body building is 40% lifting, 40% diet and 40% sleep. And it's always going to be 120% dedication.
Power lifters eat to help them lift.

low, like u should train pretty much every other muscle.
EXCEPT.. on calfs i go high, i dunno why its just a personal belief i look at it like this.
Since u have been able to walk youve been working your calves, so uve trained them for all them years now they are very tough. So u gotta shock them with huge weight and high'ish reps, they recover fast.
Probably a stupid theory but it worked for meIt takes a big man to use roids
It takes a bigger man not to use them

hah
I squatted today .. Im in this class for school we were suppose to do 5 x 8
So I add alot of weight I went 8 , 8 , 6 , 6 , 4
Just killing my legs , there my strongest part .. I was hesitant at first to put on 2 45lb. plates each side but man it was nothing for me .. MAke sure when you squat you get very low to were its hard to get back up... push your self i see so many kids neglect get full movements in and it kinda pisses me off cause they will try and put up more weight then everyone and have crap form"Fall 7 times Get up 8"
Putting together a legit bulking system.. dealing with what I got..
