hello, ive been doing greyskull lp for 4 months now.
I resetted my squat two times and it hardly moved last best was 111,5kg x 4. As you can see my squat is pretty weak.
I cant decide whether I should lighten up the load and get higher (15-20) reps on AMRAP set, but i dont see a point in doing the two 5-rep sets before that.
Also Happy Holidays

you could or if you are really wanting your squat to go up i suggest the following

remove 25%, do 2 sets at 7 then a + set. add 2.5 lbs every squat day.

after that go to 50% of the weight. do 5 sets of 10 with that weight. Just add 2.5 lbs every session to that weight.

this will get your volume up and help you smash into new pr territory. when the weight gets really heavy on the "7" sets, go to 2x5, 1x5+. when that gets too heavy to complete, switch to 2x3, 1x3+.

once you need a deload for that, i suggest either swapping to a new variant or going to 10 sets of 5 starting at 75% of the new deload weight. adding 2.5lbs every session. this will get you used to feeling the heavier weight on your back.
