Front Squat and BP PR's today

Mind you, these are still light weights but both the FSQ and the BP are new to me and I'll take a PR whenever I can get it.

Wed 9 May 2012


The Plan - Wed = 28 kg press/pu x 1-4 total reps, heavy SQ, volume BP, easy 1-leg KB DL 

28: press/pu, 1, 2 - first double on a Wed, I think, in this cycle

windmill w/ long stick behind my shoulders

OHS: stick x 1, bar x 1

FSQ: 95 x 2, 115 x 2, 135 x 2, 155 x 2 - that's a PR and I think I could have gotten another rep, too, but trying not to be a pig about things.  FSQ is completely new.

BP: 135 x 5, short rest, 5, longer rest, 145 x 5, short rest, 4, longer rest,145 x 1 (bar felt light, checked, was right), 145 x 6 - that's a PR for paused BP reps at that weight.  I did train my BP for some powerlifting meets back when but never got very far - my lifetime 1RM was 190 lbs.  I won't be happy with less than 225 as a 1RM this time around.

20: 1-leg DL, 3L + 3R - better, an nice weight for me for this exercise.
