Squat Rx #17: Westside Basics (Part II)

Could one do separate DL workouts?
What I mean is doing this:
ME(SQ) ME(BP) ME(DL) DE(SQ) DE((BP) DE(DL)
Instead of that:
ME(SQ,DL) ME(BP) DE(SQ,DL) DE(BP) etc
Do you think that the legs won't take it?

Probably should shamelessly plug the Periodization Bible that Dave Tate wrote for T-Nation a while back.

all your videos are awesome. If you have time, could you please take a look a my video and tell me what im doing right or wrong. Thanks

THANK YOU! Thank you so much for making this extensive series about squatting. I have learned so much, and following your advice has improved my squatting technique a lot. Keep 'em coming.

Yours Sincerely, Norwegian squatter

I'm glad you found it informative.

No - as I understand it, your DE squat exercise will almost always remain box squats. You might do GM variations as your ME exercise or as supplementals, but box squats will be the "DE" exercise.

One thing that I neglected to mention that a lot of people have confusion about is that you will do ONLY ONE EXERCISE TO A MAX ON "ME DAY", and ONLY ONE EXERCISE W. THE %s, REPS, & SETS FOR DE WORK - in other words, just because it's "ME" day or "DE" day doesn't mean you do EVERY exercise that way.

Thanks for these very informative vids. I'm quite confused on how i should structure my supplemental work on DE and ME day, there are many exercises in ur your series that are giving me great ideas however i am not sure how to structure them in order to avoid overtraining and get the most out of the workout.

I had to read about 10 articles on WS before I fully understood it - some are just bad at explaining it or only talk about the DE/ME principle and don't go into much detail. This is very clear and simple to follow. Great vid.

One question though: Say you are doing ME goodmornings for a couple weeks. Would you do DE goodmornings as well or something different like dynamic box-squats?
