Reflection: Why so many squats? Doesn’t matter to me anymore. After Thursday’s amazing night of PR’s, CA could programme 800m runs and I’d do them. This week calls for increases in weights on the last one or two sets I like that. It gives me a better judgement of how the weights feel and predicting future sets.
Overhead Squats: PR’s again! I wasn’t too surprised with this one as I was able to get up with 185 on Thursday. All three felt great and considering that I had done all that volume before attempting these tells me that my theoretical is likely around 196 – 205 depending on the site you use to calculate it.
The wod I did after this was probably a mistake. I felt completely destroyed after that. It did satiate the volume I crave by the end of the week though. In a strange way it keeps me motivated for Oly.
