I do two sets of 20 with a lighter weight for endurance
Not to bag on you or anyone else that does this, but please explain to me how 40 reps with a rest between them will incresae your endurance? Do you only run/ride/swim for :30s at a time in a triathlon? If the avg person takes 85 stride cycles per min per mile and runs an 8:00 mile that is 1360 steps per mile X6 miles = 8160 times you have to move your leg to run. If you ride at 90rpm and ride for 2hours that is 10800 rpms. How is 40 squats going to help your endurance?
