No workout yesterday. Schedule a bit off this AM, just wasn't getting going early. So mid-morning WO in a fed state.
Squats
Foam rolling/stretching.
Bird Dogs x10,5,3
BB Squats:
Warm ups, 95x10
135x8
185x6 - shoulders felt tight this AM, so added in Banded pull aparts here for a sets.
215x3
235x1
Working sets, resistance band pullaparts (5#) prior to each set, belted:
265x3
265x3
265x3
These actually went fairly well, felt like I was certainly pushing, but not like I was near failing. Guess that's the best I can ask for!
I am wondering if I should be doing larger incremental jumps for warm ups, and then actually just hitting a 1 rep for a "stretch" rep before backing off a little into working sets. That's a little more how some older programs I used to do structured things, presumably with the idea that neurologically you're more ready to handle the lower weights for reps. Thoughts?
39:05, 164 cals.
Pre: 2 caps Eria Jarensis, 1 packet Pixie Pump. Went lighter today pre-WO since I had my coffee first.
Intra: Same as prior.
Squat progression target looks like this:
Week 1 - 265
Week 2 - 275
Week 3 - 285
Week 4 - 295
Week 5 - 305
Week 6 - 315
Week 7 - 325
Week 8 - 335
Honestly I'm not sure if I'll be able to hit these Week after week. But we'll see.
