Getting ready for the Arnold so I decided to head down to Elitefts for the day. I needed to squat and hit a single at 625, which shouldn't be anything too crazy. It does suck trying to squat after a 3 hour car ride, but on the positive side, it is good to put yourself in an uncomfortable situation every once in awhile. On meet day things will never be 100% perfect for you.
15 minutes of mobility and light warmup had me feeling pretty good.
Squat
bar x 5
1 plate x4
2 plates x 2
3 plates x 2
3 plates/25 x2
4 plates x 1
4 plates/25 x 1
5 plates x 1
5 plates/25 x1
6 plates x 1
625x1
I used the maverick wraps 455-585 , in my opinion they are the best training wrap.
I put on the Kraits, which are the best competition wrap, for the 625. I may have ended up cutting it a little bit high, or right at parallel, but it was fast and easy.
Accessory work:
Westside Inverse hamstring curl machine - 5x10
That was all I ended up doing. I spent a lot of time catching up with some old friends and didn't want to wreck myself, then make the 3 hour drive back .
