It appears that I have not lost any strength on my squats over the past few months while I haven't been able to train with heavy loads due to the quarantine. I am still a bit displeased with my bench's progress here over the last year or so. I'm going to add two more weekly sets on the bench for now. Going to see how much volume I can get away with.
