Maybe this has already been mentioned, but doing squat 3 times a week and adding 5-10lbs each workout makes for miserable weeks... can’t do much during the off days. I also found injury to be quite prolific, when being that aggressive too. Yes, I have the book, I have the DVD and I have had state record powerlifters check my form.
It’s have learned now it’s best to leave a few reps in the tank, never grind one out when lifting for strenght. I would do the squatting 3 times per week for maybe the first month, then drop it down...
Also. Mark Rippatoe is indeed most knowledgeable. But he does have a my way or your not doing it right or your a pussy type of outlook... which is good for getting people to follow the program, but it really is ok to substitute lifts if need be, doing leg press is not as good as squatting but is 1000 times better than nothing.
