New squat cycle

I just started a meet prep wave thanks to the suggestions of Spud and Dale of South Carolina Barbell.
It is a 6 week high volume squat cycle from Verkoshansky and I just finished week 1. It is brutal.
I set very conservative maxes on the back squat and box squat because I'm a huge pussy and don't want to re-rear the bicep.
Week 1 looked like this:
Day 1:
Squat:
205x10
250x8
295x6x 4 sets
and a little assistance
Day 2:
Break in new Jack Bench shirt.
used a 3 board for doubles
then chest supported rows.

Day 3:
Box squat
225x10
275x8
325x5
375x5
400x5x4 sets
375x5
325x8
250x8

Tons of stretching and then next week it gets worse.



Tomorrow, me and my boy are going to see the Stanley Cup at American Nutrition Center in Everett with the legend  Gerry Cheevers.
