Increasing my squats

[pump44]

I have an issue with squats. It's definitely one of my weakest lifts. I've always felt like my legs were not as strong as my upper body but I've always tried to push myself. What are some tips and advice on increasing the amount of squats that I can do right now? I'm only able to squat like 300.

Bro, squats are definitely my bread and butter. I've always been able to do a lot. I think a lot of it is genetic.

Just like any strength lift, build consistency at a lower weight then work your way up.

Post your actual program now. What's it look like?

True. Mine wasn't great to begin with. Now it's crazy

I would definitely do front squats. It's a great way to get stronger and you'll be able to correct some imbalances.

Make sure, with squats, that you are using safety bars. You don't want to end up getting injured, getting too heavy.
