I think going for the bodybuilder approach is a very bad idea. Especially during training. Bodybuilding training usually involves longer recovery times for any particular muscle involved because the volume is so much higher. Squatting once a week is fine and maybe you can do it in waves. In other words something like the 5/3/1, first week do 5 rep squatting second week 3 rep squatting last week 1 rep squatting. Just try and adapt, a few months ago I was squatting once a week and sprinting 3 times a week and was still able to make progress. This is of course assuming you don't have an upcoming fight.
