doing double factor 5x5,question

I am just starting week 4 today in the volume phase, last week of that. My legs right now still feel pretty sore, as well as my knees. Should I just try to grind it through the 5 sets of 5 reps in the squat on monday, or maybe wait an extra day and do squats on tuesday? I wouldnt think I should grind it out if it means dropping the weight alot .

Maybe use wraps or a knee tube. Apply some tiger balm or similar. Do plenty of warmup sets to limber up. Eat it up, soldier.

yeah, I took 3 alieve before the workout and I actually had a better squat workout than last week. I was able to hammer out 5 sets with 415 for 5. I cant wait until next week when I can deload! Its going to be a much needed break.
