You can also cut a little time by shortening the breaks. I cut all mine down to 90 seconds today. Saved me around 5 minutes. It's not much, but it's something.

Yeah. I always gauge my breaks on heart rate rather than the time listed.
Typically around 90sec rest on the main set's.

Man, 2 min I’m still breathing a little today.

I'm using 95% which is 415 to base all of my percentages on. I'm not doing the whole program so going a little heavier. 
So this morning was 280 for the squat portion.

I do that most times
It's also my fault because I have an hour commute to work but I refuse to wake up before 5am. I will manage.

Enjoyed the workout today. As others have said, I shortened the amount of rest between sets because 2 min felt too long, but otherwise liked the programming.
Class I took before involved front squats and db lunges, so I have a feeling I’ll be slow moving in the morning.

Great workout
The squats were easy but I know it's building
DLs were heavy & great
I hate DB RDLs

Day 1 felt great.
I shortened rest times too only because I am in a time crunch to get back to work after lunch.
I have to start meal prepping a lunch after these workouts. My protein shake isn't going to cut it this month.

Nice introductory workout
squats were tough but once I got into them then I mowed them down, bumped up my DL max and those felt great. I am still amazed that I am able to do chin-ups since I have struggled with them my entire life.

I miss Chipotle in Houma. Everything minus the beans!

Alright I spent the last month telling myself I wasn't going to do Squatober but succumbed to the FOMO
Started running PPSA programs in May of this year & enjoyed doing the Monthly Pool SZN programs with this board June/July so feel like Squatober is right of passage...
Any tips on how to survive, stretching or rolling programs to keep the legs moving and not stiffing up appreciated.
Got todays done in little under an hour.
Cheers!

Try to get those daily walks in. I’ve been telling myself I need to be better at that as well.

Day 1 was not so bad. Not sure I’ll stick with it the whole month but one day at a time. Is everyone planning to eat in a caloric surplus for this? Is there any point in doing it while not in a bulking phase?

Love that determination Mr.Goggins.

I'm eating intuitively, as it is my first time doing Squatober. I actually ate a little less overall, but pretty much stuck to whole foods (other than the protein powder and some pb).

Just finished day 2 with the 3 month old new workout partner:
Love the seesaw. Definitely a heart rate workout. Between the high seesaw reps, SS and Kb swings, my HR stayed around 130 this morning.
I definitely need to get my walk in during lunch. Legs feeling good, but a little jiggly
