  • 410 x 1

High Bar Squat

  • 460 x 1
  • 480 x 1
  • 500 x 4 * PR!
    • Missed on the 5th rep. Too exhausted! Lost my composure after the 4th rep.
    • Previous best with 500 lb was 2 reps, so I would have been happy with 3 reps with this.
    • Also, this beats my rep PR low bar squat at 500 lb which is 3 reps.
    • Previous 4RM was 475 lb, so this is a +25 lb PR. Not bad!
    • Tissues just on top of my iliac crest on the left side feel bruised, probably from improper belt placement last Friday and during the warm up today. Going to stop for now.

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
