However, you can probably just substitute your prescribed Werewolf squat sets for whatever the prioritization workout recommends each week.

Anyway thanks for this routine, it really helped me out of a plateau. I went from repping 315 for 10 to doing that for 20! I never thought of doing higher reps like this. Sounds cool.

If you are deadlifting 500 at age 16 then you are well on your way to powerlifting fame. Stick with it. Train your weak points like a mofo and you will continue to progress.

Now I'll feel more confident in using more weight for my squats. I do agree with you on the upper deficiency, especially when doing pull ups :) Your expertise and guidance is well appreciated, thanks! Great info, Steve.

Women can train legs like men and have the capacity to lift heavy weight like men. Upper body is a different story. Women tend to have weaker upper bodies.

I have been squating using 60-65 lbs max (45lb bar)and working/developing toward more weight. I am a 40 something, 5'1" 112lbs and want to increase legs and I believe more weight will do that, but is the 2x bodyweight realistic for women my size?
