Confused about difficulty

Hi and apologies if this has been asked before.   I'm confused about difficulty levels and how/whether I should adjust them.  For example, assisted squats are much too easy.  I can easily do a full squat.   How do I adjust so that my program shows the more difficult exercises?  Or am I supposed to keep doing the easier ones until it changes?

Cheers.

Hi Mark, the solution is simply to master one exercise after the other and not jump at the end of the progression.

Specifically, you need to master the PE and the IM in its full range fo motion before moving on.

Thanks for the reply.  I understand, but that's exactly what I mean.  I have already mastered the easier exercises.  I can do them easily for several reps.  What do I do?

My suggestion is posting from the first exercise a video of both PE and IM.many times happens that students move forward and somewhere in the future exercises they lack of detail. detail and error which could have been corrected if a video had previously been posted.

Mark,

It is more the quality of strengthening and mobility exercises versus the quantity. Do them with strict form for both PE and IM, and you will see continued improvements later on when most plateau. It happened to me, so I started over after getting to Foundations 3.
