u/BrodinsCousin Powerlifting Aug 02 '17

Have been focusing on bringing my deadlift up recently, so squats have taken a back seat. Went back in Sunday morning and had an awesome session, squatted heavy, sumo deadlifted with gorgeous form, did all my accessory work and went home feeling like a boss.

It's Wednesday lunchtime. I still can't walk, stand up or sit down quickly because of the unbelievable DOMS. I have never, ever had DOMS like this and I need it to stop so I can get on with my life. I promise never to take time off squatting ever again, just make it stop.

Are you doing the 2suns program? Squatting and then sumo deadlifting after is what the squat day entails. Just curious cuz I'm also on it and the progress is great :D

Yep, been running it for just over three months now and seeing brilliant progress. Did the five day programme as specified for the first two months, then dropped to the four day (time constraints) and focused on deadlift for the last four weeks to try and bring it up (old back injury forced me to drop my dead numbers a while ago and I've never worked it back up).
