Barbell Programming Back Squat singles 2x/week

[FatOldMan]

Greetings!
How might Pavel program single rep back squats a fat old man? I did 255 recently. I’d love to get back being to do 315 any time I wanted. For now, my goal is to progress to 275.
After 45 years of lifting, I’m going lift the way I want and the way on squats is singles. I finish with KB swings. Swing for 10 seconds , rest for 20. Rinse and repeat for a few minutes. I’ll increase the total time as I adapt.
Thank you!

I’d say just do what you want and don’t worry about it too much. Easy strength has some good programming in it for singles.

@FatOldMan, look up "Justa Singles" and see if that might work for you.

Here’s a good breakdown for using Justa singles for squat and bench press.

Ok, due to my article that appears in the book Easy Strength I get a LOT of questions regarding Steve Justa’s ‘singles program’

What I would do is 1 day of high volume(10-20 singles at 75-80% 1rm) and one day of high intensity(5 singles at 85-90%).
I believe it can work for building brute strength.
