First Day Back after SF Barbell Cert and 1000 miles of driving

First day back, have decided to try a ladder cycle on narrow grip bench presses and front squats:

BP, grip pinkies just inside the rings

135: (1-2-3) x 3, (3-3) x 1 - counts as 4 ladders to 1-2-3.  Doing the 4th ladder as 3-3 probably cost me doing a 5th ladder - note to self, perhaps not the best choice for the future.

brought squat stands in from the deep recesses of the garage, a workout by itself

FSQ:

bar x 3

135 x 1-2-3 - paused 1 and 2 rep sets, bounced 3 as back felt better but should really pause these, too, for my goals, or at least continue to mix them.  All bounced?  Too easy to hit a wall where it doesn't work and not have the strength to progress further.  All paused?  Good, just need some practice at bounced.

break to teach a lesson, then more FSQ but only a little time in which to do them.

135: (3, 3) x 3 - today was heavy day, equal to 4 x (1-2-3) for both FSQ and BP

Onward and Upward
