My lower body had just begun to recover fully from Monday's total destruction when the Friday workout popped up... "Oh shit" came to mind first. Luckily, things weren't too bad at all. We had some super strong squats from our crew, and a few PR's to boot.
Front Squat 1-1-1-1-1-1-1
Eric- 250
Bart- 165
David- 145
Todd- 285
Tammy- 110
Emilee- 105
Sharon- 110
Casey- 255
T- 185
With seven sets, the thought process can go many ways. Do I want to max out on the last set, or in an earlier set, to avoid the fatigue of arriving at seven? Some people maxed early, some at the end. Either way, the front squat session was a good one.
Super strong squats, Todd, Madman, and Eric! Great PR's Tammy, Emilee, and Sharon. Much more functional than the squats that brutalized us Monday, the front squat is a more demanding squat in that our cores MUST be solid, elbows high, maintaining a good rack- much more taxing from a flexibility standpoint than the back squat.
Good luck on the 5k run in Birmingham Saturday, Tammy, Emilee, and Lisa P. We'll be thinking of you, and know you'll have a blast. Standby for Saturday, 0900. Be there. Thanks for all the great efforts today, and all week. This was a pretty heavy week, and I am glad its over.
