Description

This 8 week program is designed to help you improve your back squat by following the same program that Craig Richey used to increase his own back squat by 10kg in 8 weeks. The program is split into 4 sessions for maximum effect with rest days taken where prescribed to optimize recovery, which may vary between different phases of the program. You should follow the first 3 sessions of the program for 3 days a week each week, best performed as session 1, rest day, session 2, rest day, session 3, 2 rest days. The program is divided into a 4 week accumulation phase followed by a 4 week intensification phase.

To optimize your results from the program, it is recommended to test your front squat and back squat before starting week 1. After completing the 8-week program, you should complete the extra 2 weeks, which are a taper week and then a test week to ensure you are best prepared for retesting your squat numbers again. By following this program, you can expect to see significant improvements in your back squat strength.
