Workout 23 July 2012

Squats
135 x10
225 x8
315 x8
405 x5
455 x3
500 x3, 4, 4

I was originally going to go for 20 total reps with 500, but this is still a lot of reps with 500+. I don't think even when I squatted over 600 I did more than 10 reps with 500+. I don't think I could hit 555 x5 right now, but I moved to low bar and my hamstrings and butt are getting more involved, which is helping with the terrible hamstring inflexibility/pain I have been dealing with. Stretching helps, but not that much. I was surprised with how fast my low bar is- 455 was quicker than I was expecting. I did squat some on Saturday- 365 x8 x3- high bar, but slower than 455 was here. Insights into things for me. I was also planning on doing some overhead pressing, but my wrists were destroyed.

TRX Squats s/s with TRX planks
10 reps/ 15 sec
10 reps/ 15 sec
10 reps/ 20 sec

I hate these, hence why I do them.

Jumps
Standing x5
Broad x3

Fin. KB swings are stuck around 400 every other day in 30-50 rep sets. I think I'll go to 200 every day- it will be a balance of some conditioning without destroying my gains.
