The day after hosting our first powerlifting meet, I had to get some squats in. The meet went well despite it being an outdoor meet on one of the hottest days in recent memory in Pittsburgh.
| Saurday | blue 3 chains | |
| SSB to a box | 400-450-500 | 3x2 |
| Front squat | 1-2-3-3 plates | 4x8 |
| Belt squat | 2-3-4-5-6 | 5x20 'speed' |
| GHR | BW-5 partial, 5 full | 2x20 |
|
Hanging leg raises
|
2x20 |
My elbows and wrists have been feeling like shit recently. I opted for the SSB today as a result. I worked up to 500x2 with blue bands and 3 chains (around 800# at the top). That was the planned number using a straight bar for that week, so this was a win.
Front squats are a bitch...or I'm a bitch. Belt squat working on snapping my hips through. And GHR's for some blood flow to the hammies after not hitting them the previous deadlift session.
