@@realbenmaynard6019 you can grow muscle up to 30 reps.. and challenge your endurance. Meaning your ability to do more work. More volume and possibly get more muscle and strength by training that
20reps on a Leg Press or Hack Squat are already fckng crazy if you ask me, an actual Back Squat... holy sh*t, if you're not an endurance athlete I wouldn't even be able to grasp how that's possible.
I do one top set to 20 reps on squats for every week. Mainly maintenence for legs, but I accidently gain a lot of cardiovascular adaptations by doing that
Less injuries and cardiovascular benefits are good reasons enough. Its easy to forget about risk of injury if you dont have them. A coach should be like a portfolio manager. Get good gains with low risks. One cannot measure success solely by gains made.
I avoid reps higher than 10 on squats. I've gotten exertion headaches almost every time I push it further than 10 reps. Exertion headaches cripple me from going to the gym for a week or longer.
Doing 10 reps set,my lower back is definitely the limiting factor .when I do 18rep its almost as though I have squeeze the last drop out of my legs-nonetheless my lower back still gives out first .but atleast doing 15-18reps set,I I avoid back discomfort the following 2 days.
Quite a few advanced YTers have shown results of 20 rep squats one time per wk for 10-12 weeks as their only leg training. Quads blew up. I think its a thing if you can survive it.
Commenting before Eric even speaks. Doesn’t matter if 20 rep back squats are better you’re not getting me to do those lol good video guys!
Challenge your cardio
@@Nando_lifts2021 i’m not doing back squats to challenge my cardio. I’m doing back squats for strength and muscle growth.

If heavy is like 75-80% of your 1rm I doubt many are doing high reps
@@pierrea3094 it either IS 75%-80% of your 1RM or it isn't

Instead of 5x5 just do one set of 25 and pass tf out doing it

Would you say increasimg workcapacity leads to better Recovery and that you are able to do more Sets and growth from this?

Training to failure is smart.
Training to pukage is *wise.*
I reckon if you are cooked, puking your guts out with 8+ reps, you have got some bigger fish to fry.
