Pre-wendler my Back squat was 265 so anything above that is a win. My PR is 275. I think I’m still 1 or 2 wendler cycles away from PR-ing though.
Front Squat I am hoping for 215 which would be quite lower than my PR of 236. We’ll see where it goes!
WOD looks a little annoying in the sense that I’m really great at DU’s but not so much in front squat. In fact, if I get a score of 4 I’ll be really impressed with myself. We’ll see how I feel.
Results:
Back Squat: NEW PR! 280lbs. Video Below. I am fairly sure I got to at least parallel but the fact that I question it means I have to try to get lower in the future. Also of note: this is my first time lifting with a belt, I liked it a lot.
Front Squat: Hit 215 and failed at 225. It is my core failing not my legs. Not sure if I was fatigued at all from the back squats. Either way this is something I have to continue to work on.
METCON: Got to 4+28 (4 complete rounds and 10 Front squats with 18 DU’s). Not great but not as horrible as I thought either. I’m sure my depth was suspect on some reps while fine on others.
Followed this up with a nice leisurely 2.25 mile run with Digital Mustard.
Tomorrow…”rest”
