Heavy front and Back squats and a cheeky little METCON

5-5-3-3-1-max
  • Front squat
  • Back squat
Rest 5 minutes, then 3 rounds for the time of:
  • 50 Double unders
  • 40 Box jumps (24 inch)
  • 30 GHD sit ups
  • 20 Push ups
  • 10 Strict pull ups
Front squat- 5 (185lb), 5 (205lb), 3 (225lb), 3 (235lb), 1 (245lb), failed (255lb)
Back Squat- 5 (185lb), 5 (225lb), 3 (245lb), 3 (255lb), failed (275lb)

My legs were feeling really heavy after yesterdays run so I decided to test out some heavy squats with fatigued legs. I managed 10lb under my Front squat PR and failed my Back squat PR, but to be fair by the time I was attempting 275lb back squat my legs were fried. To finish off I completed a little 3 round METCON in 12:10, my box jumps were not easy after the heavy squats!!!

Oh and I got my first RING HSPU today :-)
