We planned on doing 5 x 5 on squats. Some days are good and some days are bad. After completing extensions i sensed discomfort on my surgically repaired knee. But we still decided to squat, but not max out. we squatted with 40kgs, 70kgs, 100kgs, 130kgs and finally 160 kgs. As the sets grew heavier, the knee started showing more discomfort. So i decided not to squat all the way down, but stop it at parallel. In spite of the discomfort, it was work perfectly accomplished. The quadriceps were perfectly stimulated.
This video has the last two sets of squat. And here is my high volume quadriceps workout for you information....
leg extensions - 5 x 10-20
squats - 5 x 5
leg press - 4 x 20 ( the leg press machine does not hold more than 8 plates per sidde)
hack squats - 4 x 12
machine squats - 3 x 15
