May 1, 2025: CL, FSQ, BP

 lots of errands, walk some, etc.

CL: Tall Muscle

bar (20 kg) x 3

25 kg x 3, 3, 3

FSQ:

40 kg x 2

50 x 2

60 x 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 - 5 x 5 = very good, focus on knees forward on the descent and straight up on the ascent.  Now able to keep pinkies under the bar - flexibility is improving.  Like gripping right up to the inside edge of the knurling.

break

BP: 

62.5 kg x 5 - j-hook's too low (were for Bronwen), moved them for next set

65 x 5 - reset j-hooks for Bronwen and stripped the bar
