Squat 3 x A Week - Overtraining or Not?

if you chnage one variable 9i.e frequency) then you need to change another (intensity, volume etc)

but I have done a smolov style routine of squatting heavy and hard four times a week and it worked great

in fact i did it for benching and it was the first time i could get through a plataeu which benching once a week had me stuck on for around two years

well structured strength routines would easily allow working a movement or muscle mutliple times per week

the bodybuilder styled routine of killing a bodypart tends to casue problems with doing this - which is better is subjective but i think the more frequent you can train a bodypart and make strength gains the better IMO
