These are awful. I am starting to hate them.
Front Squats -
225x5,5
275x5,5,5
315x5
365x2
405x1 Easy
Ab Wheel - 2x20
1 Legged Calf - 2x20
Notes - Almost no quad pain tonight, and while I stated that wouldn't venture above 275 for a while, I wanted to continue to test my theory that strength will come back on lower intensities, or that strength can be built there. The 405 was stupid easy. I haven't loaded the bar more than to 275 for over a month now.
Again, just more fuel for the fire that lower intensities can build or bring back strength very rapidly.
Any idea what your previous 1RM on the front squat was?
ReplyDeleteAny time I get over zealous and am looking to sow my oats I always remind myself..." BUILD strength in the gym, dont showcase it." and then I settle down and bang out a rep PR.
You and Wendler have made me a much smarter lifter.
I see you rocking In Flames. their old school stuff is some of my favorite ever. props
ReplyDeleteI love when you guys know my music. Yeah I like their old stuff as well.
DeleteHey Paul. I started a thread on reddit about your front squat video and the grip you're using. We'd love to hear from you. Here's a link to it. http://redd.it/14bij2 Cheers
