Squats and Sparring

Workout 4 January 2009:

Back Squats
5 sets of 5 reps at 210lb

Thai Kickboxing
30 minutes training and sparring

It's been several weeks since I've squatted heavy and since one of my goals is a 2x bodyweight squat, it's time to jump back in. Since it's been awhile, I scaled back the weight a bit. I also didn't want to completely destroy my legs prior to some Muay Thai training.

Muay Thai did not go well. My form and technique weren't terrible considering I've taken 3 weeks off. However, I fatigued much more quickly than usual and recovered slowly. I'm going to add an extra 30 minutes on Wednesday to make up for this.
