We will be working on finding your 1rep max for 4 specific lifts: Back Squat, Deadlift, Shoulder Press and Bench Press. The reason for this is, starting in April we will be starting the 5/3/1 program from Jim Wendler. These are the 4 basic strength movements everybody should be strong at. We will also be practicing alot on the Olympic lifts, starting light and working our way up to handling weight.

Melissa completed this in 10:04 using 65# for back squats

um......my time was 16:xx (can't remember) and I didn't have any weight on the bar! 65# Melissa! Can't believe you did that!
ReplyDeleteI am back dating this comment because the after effect was unforgettable..my calves were sore a week! My time was 7:42, I did not write down a weight for the back squats, so I am assuming I did the bar. This was a fun workout, till I had to walk "the day I mean week after."
