I'm running the fierce 5 program but recently had a set back with my squats, I'm wondering if I can put my other lifts on hold till my squat comes back up to where it was before. Basically not adding any weight to all my lifts for a few weeks. Does that make sense? I went from 195 deloaded 15% injured my self on deload, got assessed and was told to work with light weight for a while and work on mobility till form and strength improve. Basically my squat is back to 135 lbs while my
Deadlift is 255
Bench 160
OHP 135
Row is 135 (Currently deloaded) 1x
Not sure if I'm asking the right question.

I had a similar situation where I couldn't squat due to back pain, and basically I slowed progression on my lifts until my pain went away and I got my squat back up. To each their own, but I feel safer being more balanced overall. It only took about 2 months to heal the back, and then 2 more months to level everything out. I kind of liked being focused on legs for that time, so many people don't take legs seriously.
Get your squat up to about 225 and you'll have good balance with your other lifts. Muscle memory will help, it should only take a few months.
Are you cleared by your doctor to start pushing it on squats?
