"I hate squats." My go-to, whiny statement before every single squat session. Really though, why do I "hate" them. Aside from the annoyance of getting wrapped for 5 heavyish sets, I really just hate them because they're my worst lift. Oh I know, how bratty of me to hate them just because I'm not good at them, whatever. Really this is totally besides the point, entirely. Today went better than I expected. I haven't really known what to expect with training ever since I lost weight, but it would appear that I am basically on par with how I was last year at this point, which is extremely exciting. All there is left to do is show up, make weight, and lift some weights.
I hit 415x1, just 5 lbs off of my best training squat from last year. I was pretty excited to say the least. ALWAYS room for improvement here, and I really plan to work on that after this meet.
