Heavy Weight + High Reps = New PRs

A 12-week program that grows your ass and core to crush plateaus.

Giant Ass | Powerhouse Core | Tree Trunk Legs

A Roadmap To Strength, Size, and Mental Toughness

• Feeling frustrated that you know you could be stronger?
• Have you been stuck in a plateau and nothing seems to help?
• Are you on the hamster wheel of working hard, but not progressing?
• Do you program hop or add exercises hoping something will work?

You Need A System Upgrade

People get stuck in strength plateaus because they’re trying to move bigger weights without first upgrading their system to handle it.

Upgrading your whole system is a lot of work. It’s hard work, but it’s simple.

Instead of accepting a plateau. Instead of thinking you’ve hit your strength ceiling. Think of this equation:

Giant Ass + Thick Core = Structural Integrity for STRONG

Your ass and core balance each other out and work together to create structural integrity. If you’re going to break through a plateau, you’ve got to put in some dedicated time to developing your ass and core.

To do that, you’ll need significant time under tension. This program puts a heavy barbell on your back and it will take you around 3 minutes to complete your 20 reps. Especially as the weight gets heavier each week.

You will gain muscle. You will gain strength. You will create a stronger mind. Not only will the 20 Rep Back Squat Program upgrade you physically, it will show you what you are capable of like nothing else in the gym. It is a line in the sand that shows your commitment to strength.

I’ve been talking about this 20 rep squat program in a lot of my stories, and wanted to give some more info and update on progress so far. I followed a similar ‘program’ during a college football offseason, which pretty much just meant I randomly did high rep squats to get myself back into squatting shape. I saw @andersvarner post on a 20 rep squat program (which was actually a real program this time) and got fired up to try it. I was in between cycles and had been wanting to beef my squat back up, so I decided to jump right in. I optimistically thought I would start at 225, and quickly realized I probably couldn’t do 10 reps there on day 1. I throttled back to 205 week 1, and grinded out my first 20 rep session. I set a realistic goal of 255, with my stretch goal being to get up to 275 over a 12 week period. With some help from Anders on the programming side of things, I’ve been able to add 10 lbs on each week. Only 7 weeks in, here was 275 from this morning. None of these are by any means easy, but it’s sure feeling stronger week to week. I didn’t expect to climb this quickly, but good news/bad news is that 300 is now in sight and it’s time to keep pushing forward. I might need a count check on this set, there might be an extra rep or two in there from losing count. Always one more rep, never one fewer. It doesn’t get much simpler than squat, breath, breath breath, squat. But simple doesn’t mean easy. Just gotta keep putting the work in and keep grinding through it physically and mentally. Thanks for the help @andersvarner @shruggedcollective – 300 here I come 💪🏼 . . . . . #squats #squatlife #squatgoals #squatting #squatday #squatbooty #squateveryday #squatgoals #overheadsquat #frontsquat #backsquat #backsquats #liftheavy #barbellsquats #barbell #barbellworkout #barbells #barbellbrigade #legday #legworkout #quads #glutes #gluteworkout #strengthtraining #squat #deadlift #bodybuilding #powerlifting #functionalbodybuilding #functionalfitness

I DID IT! 80 🔑x20 reps = First goal on this squat cycle has been met! No belt, no knees and no preworkout (😭) ✌🏻Rep 15-20 in this video, with cheering from the boys 🙏🏻 I know im looking a little #quasimodo on the last reps, but 1600kg moved in one set w/3 minute under tension will do that to you. Im following @andersvarner s guidelines of doing breathing pullovers afterwards, it helps! Onwards, upwards and heavier loads 🤘🏻 #letsgo! #motivated #squat #olympicweightlifting #breathingsquats #powerlifting #strongerbytheday #womenofpower #storebenhverdag #setagoalandsurpassit #goalhunter #fightlikehell #girlswhoweightlift #weaknessisachoice
