Sunday Strength: Back Squats & Press

March 22, 2015 By deacon Leave a Comment

Sunday pure strength work. Planning on hitting conditioning on Mon, Tue, and Wed of this week so I just wanted to get some straight strength in from the new rack.

1. Low Bar Back Squat: 5-5-5-5-5

225, 235, 245, 245, 245

Notes: First time doing squats from a rack in years. Felt good to be able to do this again.

1b.After each set: 5 strict chin ups.

Notes: These have improved a ton just in the last week. Working towards consistent muscle ups with this weekly.

2.Strict Press: 3-3-3-3-3

95, 115, 125, 125, 125

Notes: Felt good doing these from a rack again. I’m pleased with how these felt since I haven’t done any overhead work in a while.

2b.After each set: false grip work. Hang from pull-up bar from wrists. First time I’ve been able to put my full weight on it. Felt good! Lots of improvement in just a week here.

For not having worked from a rack in 2+ years I’m pleased to be able to hit those squats with solid form. Mobility felt good. Everything felt good.
