Back Squats

Workout 17 February 2010:

Back Squat 5-5-5-5-5

Results: 185-205-225-235-235lbs
Previous best: 210x5 (27 Feb 09)

It was a relatively light day at work, so I decided to do some heavy squats in the hospital gym. I'm not really sure where these numbers came from since I previously haven't been able to break 210-220lbs on a set of 5s. On the one hand, I'm excited that my numbers are going up; however, relative to my body weight, my numbers aren't as good as they used to be. Hopefully in about 4 months when I start my new job, I'll have more time to train and get back to the same level of fitness I was at over a year ago.

Remember, a squat doesn't count if you don't squat past parallel. No cheating and doing only 1/4 or 1/2 depth squats.
