Monday, April 18th, 2011 - Squat is king

Find 1RM Back Squat
135lbs x 5
185lbs x 3
225lbs x 1
255lbs x 1
275lbs x 1
295lbs x 1
310lbs x 1 (5lb PR)
325lbs x 1 (20lb PR)

I'm telling you man...squat is king when it comes to strength.  I haven't squated anything over 250lbs since 3/14/11.  Since then I've back squated twice with nothing more than 185lbs.  I truely feel it's directly related to squatting ever day for 2 months straight.

Metcon
10 Min AMRAP
4 HSPU's
8 Toes to Bar
12 KB american swings @ 53lbs

4 rounds + 1 rep - scaled

I tried doing the HSPU's Rx and got the first 2 reps.  After that I just did negatives.  The handstands are a GOAT and they held me back from completing more rounds.  I'm just happy I got to work them in.  Toes and Swings were all fast and unbroken as they should be.  Rest day for Tuesday.
