Ok can someone tell me why deadlifts should be low reps and heavy and why squats should not?
I see mostly everyone doing squats up in the reps of 20. I would just like to know because I train both deadlifts and squats very heavy. My squats don't go past 5-6 reps and my legs look like Mikey M's (Tree Trunks). With 20 reps you might only allow yourself to work at 70-80% max at the most. Though once again everyone is different lol. Do you guys really grow off of 20 reps?
Though I do throw in RP principle with squats I still mabye will only get to 12 before I wanna be sick to my stomach. Usually I run around 5-6 reps RP 10 breaths 3 more RP 10 breaths 2-3 more and then rack it.
