G'day all, long time lurker very rare poster however have come across a mental block...
Basically I feel like I'm not squatting enough. I'm following the beginner strength programme as best I can (not really good at consistent frequency of training, I'll have a great week the. Go on day shift and get 1 session in on top of rugby training) and I do a fair amount of cardio with rugby.
So whilst I except that I'm far from perfect in terms of achieving good progression I still think my squat is weak.
I manage my 3x10 work sets at 80kg all the time. Some days I can do 2 of those sets at 90kg.
As a reference my bench sets (3x8) are achieved fairly comfortably at 70kg and my dead lift sets are currently 115kg.
I'm making good traceable progression on all lifts except the squat.
Any thoughts or ideas?
Or am I way over thinking things?
