**If you’re not used to high rep squats, your quads might be feeling jacked today. Or if your weight was on your toes, your quads might be feeling spicy. Either way, try to add maybe 100 air squats to your daily routine until 100 is a piece of cake. Then add 50 more for a week, building up to the volume from “Barbara” until that volume isn’t an issue. Also, by the end of this experiment, hopefully you’re feeling the squats in your glutes and not quads, which is where you should be feeling them. Tricked ya!
Yeah.. squats build tha booty, so we’re going to build a bigger booty day with some back squats.
Follow this up with a little barbell complex on the minutes (EMOM). This is something you should be able to complete pretty quickly (10 seconds) to allow yourself a lot of rest to recover.
“Do I have to rest?”
Yes. Recover. Work hard, rest harder.
