Back Squats

Back squat:

3-3-3-3-3

My loads were: 185, 185, 205 (2 reps + fail), 195, 195.

It's only been about two weeks since I last did this workout, but when it came up on the main site a few days ago, I decided to take another swing. Unfortunately, since I'm not markedly stronger than I was two weeks ago, I ran up against the same wall I did last time: 205. I think it's funny that "Heavy Things" is playing in the background for that set. You really are genius, iTunes. Maybe I should just forfeit all of my music-selection agency to you.

  1. I'm amazed at your 'dropping the bar' skills. You had me on the edge of my seat for minute!

    Are you sure that was 205 lbs? From where I'm sitting, it looks more like 325! That's assuming those black plates are 45 lbs.
