If you want a quick start for your squat, try the Russian squat routine. The first one I ever did was in Fred Hatfield's book, Power. It has tons of volume, and for a beginner or intermediate lifter, it does wonders because it "greases the groove" as Pavel would say. I believe that the original had the lifter squatting 3x a week. Don't be afraid to just squat 2x or 1x a week if you aren't recovering.
