How did day one go? How are you planning to incorporate other lifts?
Just a couple of thoughts from my experiment on squats. The first week was great even the back to back squat days. However, I think the way I scheduled my workouts wore me out even more. I was in the gym 6 days a week, 3 days just squatting, 1 day I did squat and bench and then I did shoulder press and deadlift on their own days. I ate a lot, stretched and foam rolled but nothing was going to stop the soreness. I haven't done any leg work since Thursday and I am still sore.
So my advice for what its worth: eat big, drink lots of water, stretch more than you ever have before and do any other lifting on the same days you are in the gym to bench.
