Paused Front Squat

  • 45 x 10
  • 140 x 5
  • 230 x 3
  • 280 x 1
  • 330 x 1

Front Squat

  • 370 x 1
  • 410 x 1
  • 460 x 0
    • Only came up a few inches out of the hole.
    • Was thinking about re-attempting this, but I'll wait until later.

Paused Front Squat

  • 420 x 3 * PR!
    • +15 lb PR from last week!
    • Originally wanted 2 reps for a 2RM, but 2nd rep felt OK so I tried for a 3rd. Got it, but it was a little tough.
    • 420 lb is even higher than my non-paused front squat 3RM (410 lb), and the weight matches my 2 rep max, meaning I should go for another 3RM and 2RM on the regular front squat soon (on top of a paused front squat 2RM).

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.
