SQUAT TRAINING - Mesocycle 23 Week 1
I was supposed to train last night at 9 pm but I decided to take a nap at 7:30 and woke up at 10. Such a silly mistake haha...
Front Squats:
275 lbs x 3 reps x 3 sets
I am pretty angry about this. I don't know about you guys but I HATE using the safety racks for Front Squats. For some reason my mind is messed up and every time I use the safety racks my form goes to shit because I invariably "cave in" and get the bar to touch the damn racks!!! So annoying. I avoided this on the first and third sets but the second set was disgusting. 275x3x3 is still big for me. Next week I'm gonna add reps. And I'm not going to use the safety racks.
Back Squats:
315 lbs x 2 reps
315 lbs x 2 reps
275 lbs x 7 reps
Wow....this was difficult!!
Dumbbell Windmills: 30 lbs x 12 reps x 4 sets
Plate Pinches: 2 plates of 10 lbs each x 30 seconds x 3 sets, 45 seconds to failure on the 4th set
Dumbbell Static Holds: 100 lbs x 30 seconds x 3 sets
Overall it was a good training session. I'm pleased and I had a very interesting discussion with the trainers at K11. Very cool guys!
