[QUOTE=Milton Brisson;1025423]Hey Nik! Havent visisted in a while! You have stayed consistent, nice work! I see your squats are looking good - you are consistently over 300 for reps, which is awesome!:highfive:

And a 5 x 5 on deadlifts is insane!

I will be around a little more now, I think! (I am soending more time at the office...)[/QUOTE]

Good to hear! Its good to see that you are not worried about doing them as frequently as you do. If I had the time, I would be squatting every day.

Check out Anthony and Jodi's log, they do "daily squats", its something I would like to get into!

See that has crossed my mind. I have seen Anthonys log and watched him do the every day squat. I just wonder if there is a benifit and what it would be. He was doing a presentage of his max. I wonder what I should do if i did it. I just havent done it because I am not going to do it just to do it. Know what I mean?

Solid volume on the deads and well done on that chipper workout, one of the worst ones I have done, anything that starts with all those burpees.

I dont think you should squat every day, would probably lead to a repetitive injury and coming from me, who trains too much!!

Thanks Scott. Honestly on the squatting I do'nt see a benifit to it.

I ended up trying to get sick over the weekend but I'm ok for now. I did'nt do anything I was just tired and sluggisjh. Still feel it today.
