The Exact Squat Program I Used to Back Squat 500 Pounds & Front Squat 440 lbs

After 18 months of training, 5 consecutive squat cycles, and countless hours under the bar, I successfully back squatted 500 lbs (227 kg) and front squatted 440 lbs (200 kg). Now, I'm going to show you exactly how I did it! In this video, I'm breaking down the complete squat program I used to build my strength. We'll go through every week, every set, every rep, and every percentage so you can understand not only WHAT I did, but WHY I did it. This program is based on Greg Everett's 10-Week Volume Squat Cycle, which I adapted into a 4-day training schedule and ran five consecutive times. In this video, we'll cover: - The complete 10-week back squat and front squat progression - How to calculate your training max and working weights - Why volume increases before intensity takes over - How the program manages fatigue and tapers toward a new max - Why I prioritized back squats while still building my front squat - The purpose of secondary technique days - How to adjust the program if you don't front squat - How I approached max attempts and ultimately reached 500/440 lbs And this video is just the beginning! In upcoming videos, I'll be covering exercise selection, accessory movements, warm-ups, mobility, fatigue management, recovery, nutrition, technique, and the adjustments I made throughout these past 18 months. My goal isn't simply to show you how I squatted 500 lbs. It's to help you understand the programming decisions that allowed me to get stronger, so that you can get stronger too!
