This is the exact training cycle I used in the mid-80s to squat my first 500 pounds.

This 6-week cycle is for the beginner and intermediate lifter who has reached a plateau. You’ll rely on core, plyometrics, and squats to achieve a new max.

Each time I use this method myself I feel like I could run through a wall come meet day. Now after six years of using this cycle, we have proof that it works for our athletes.
