Training 19/01/13

Squat

So I got up this morning and went to go do some raw squatting to make up for last night. I felt pretty fatigued and realized once I started it wouldn't be smart to hit the numbers I'd planned today. I was getting very warm and sweating very quickly which is usually what happens when I have pushed things a little too much. The plan had been to work up to 240kg 5x2 in belt and knee wraps. Instead I had a relaxed session and went as follows:

Work up sets then
180kg x3 (no knee wraps or belt)
200kg x2 (belt only)
220kg x2 (belt and knee wraps)
240kg x2 (belt and knee wraps)
260kg x2 (belt and knee wraps) PB

Knee wraps were 2m Iron Wraps Z.

Prior to this I had only ever gone to 250kg x1 in a belt and knee wraps. This 260kg double was very easy and it's looking like I may not be too far off one of my short term goals of a 300kg squat in belt and knee wraps.

I finished up after this and decided to spend the rest of the day chilling out. This coming week will be pretty intense. We are going full range equipped on the bench on Wed and full kit on the squat on Friday so there is plenty to look forward to.

Thanks for reading
