Fall 2009 Training
Mesocycle 13 - Week 2

Squat Day

Beginning Thoughts:
I have barely been eating any food and I felt very weak yesterday when I went in for this workout.
Workout:
Anderson Front Squat Singles:
135 lbs x 8 reps
185 lbs x 6 reps
225 lbs x 4 reps
240 lbs x 2 reps
I was feeling really out of with this exercise - my hips were too tight and I was having a hard time dripping the bar using that olympic grip - I forgot my wraps so I decided to jump into using 2 of my fingers to grip the bar, but I was having difficulty in executing the lift. So, I decided to dump this exercise and try:

Overhead Squats:
45 lbs x 5 reps
95 lbs x 3 reps
115 lbs x 2 reps x 2 sets
135 lbs x 3 reps
155 lbs x 1 rep x 2 sets
175 lbs x 1 rep
This felt absolutely awesome. I am very pleased with 175 lbs. I weigh like 185 lbs and this is just 10 lbs off my own BW so I am very happy. Sadly, no vids of this because my gym was far too packed yesterday.

Farmers Walks:
105 lbs x 3 trips

Hanging Air Kicks:
BW x 12 reps x 3 sets
Videos:
Too many people at the gym..
Overall Impression:
I am gonna try doing Front Squats again next week. I hope they feel better. I fucking hate squatting though....I think next mesocycle I am gonna replace Anderson Front Squats with Overhead Squats followed by Back Squats. I kinda want to have an OH Squat with more than my BodyWeight.
