Notes from Jeff on the Squats, “First up is the barbell squat. The squat is the king of all leg exercises and must be included in any perfect leg workout for men or leg workout for women.

The key to how you are going to perform it here is as 4 sets of 4-6 reps. Make sure that you are stopping 1-2 reps shy of failure.

Strength

That said, you want to take the opportunity to overload this exercise and increase your strength on it over time.

Adjust your weights upward as needed to keep your range within this 4-6 rep zone.”
