Saturday, January 15th, 2011 - Keep on squating

Back Squat
135lbs x 5
185lbs x 2
205lbs x 2
255lbs x 1

So 7 days in a row of squatting and I'm feeling good.  Hamstrings haven't felt tight at all.  Overall, I'm feeling stronger then just a typical day.  I don't really feel like I would need to warmup per say to squat 250lbs.  I think I could just walk right up to it and squat it for reps.

It's becoming a fun little habit to squat once a day.  The volume is low but intensity is high, so I'm not worried about injury or over use.  255 is roughly 90% of my 1RM. We're talking about 1,700lbs of total work.  On my heaviest week of the 5/3/1 program the total work was upwards of 9,000+lbs.
