In a rush, but trying to keep this rolling while I can. Front Squats (full depth, in lbs.) - 45x8, 135x5, 185x3, 225x2, 275x2, 315x1, 365x1, 385x1 That's it for today! Seems like 385# is now my "Any (Decent) Day Max", with 365# being my "(Almost) Any Day Max". Need to push those both up by about 20#. |

At the Parkour gym with the kids. Jumping up stairs - worked up to about 10 jumps up 5 stairs from a single-step approach, in addition to a similar number up 4 stairs that way and about the same number up 4 stairs from a standing position. First time for these in about 2 months, I believe. |

Review of the blog seems to state, squatting heavy results in heavier squats. 420 front squat. That is some kind of party. Congrats man, love it.

Myles - agreed, at least for some period of time, if by heavy you mean mostly singles and a few doubles and nothing hard over 3 reps. I have been prioritizing frequency and intensity and severely limiting volume, which has worked well for the moment. I will change things up a bit when I hit 195kg or 430 lbs. and then gradually try to get that up to 200kg or maybe 445 lbs. while simultaneously pushing up my Olympic Back Squat.
