Squats

Busy day today with Thanksgiving dinner going on. Had to go shopping for last minute things plus I also am on duty so I have to go into work for a couple hours. Just enough time to Squat.

Warm Up
Leg Swings and Stretching.
Squats - 135lbs/8 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/3 reps.
The 315lbs Squats felt tough and not in the groove. Time for 415lbs.

Power Phase
Squats (with knee sleeves and belt) - 5 sets/1 rep/415lbs, 1 set/1 rep/440lbs.
The heavy single were starting together by the third single. 440lbs felt good and controlled.

Pump Phase
Squats (no belt, no knee wraps) - 3 sets/4 reps/275lbs.

Now it's time to go to work. Feeling good and ready for some good food with some good friends when I get home.
