LANDO'S BULGARIAN SQUAT THREAD
Before you do something like this, there's some preparation to do, both mentally and physically.
First, throw out any Soy BS about bad knees, overtraining, and all other gimmicks, you're just squatting, not a big deal.
Second, get comfortable in a DEEP Ass to Grass Squat.

More Mental Preparation, after all, the Mind controls the Body.
You're going to have to be brutally honest with yourself on putting forth your best effort. Every day.
The more you put in, the more you get out.
Lastly, ignore the noise, lots will hate when you run this program

Now Precaution, if your form IS shit, or if you have a history of injuries, don't be stupid and run this.
You want a high bar squat, as shown in the picture. You want to go Ass to Grass. Brace hard, as if you're about to be punched. Constantly video check your own form.

The PROGRAM
It's SINPLE.
Squat until you miss the heaviest single you can, then do some work after.
Everyday, for 6 months.
Work up to max, past max with a miss, then do sets and reps however you want to, 5x5, 6x2, doesn't matter, just do something.
All Squats, Nothing Else

WHY THOUGH?
When you squat to Maximum daily, you lose the fear of it, you learn comfort under the weight, and your Body adapts.
How can you be scared of a new PR when you've squatted 15lb less than it daily for the past month? You Aren't
Give it one month, the Body WILL adapt

The Principles to Follow
Max Squat daily, Back or Front, but 80% of your days should be BACK SQUAT MAX.
Working sets, focus on quality reps, progressive overload BASED ON the max set for the day.
WARM UP, don't get hurt on this, break a sweat before you start hitting singles.

DETAIL
You're going to be missing a lot of max squats on this program. This is HOW.
Two methods, safety rack, where you just drop back down, lower the weight on the guards, and dip out.
Second method, with bumper plates, ditch the weight. Pop your hips forward and drop it.

KEEP IN MIND
All you're doing is these squats, everyday, nothing else.
Sleeping long hours, and bulking are recommended, almost key. Sleep, eat, repeat.
Sacrifice, don't miss a day. Seriously. Not one. You won't want to do it some days, but the workouts are short, get it done.

GET TO WORK
Only thing I can do, is tell you how I did it, now you must go forth and make gains.
This programming put over 100lbs on my squat in 100 days, bringing it to 510lb.
This had DIRECT carry over to Bench and clean, where I did 355lb and 350lb, both HS records.
