I’m 1 week behind, Nitrous : 9:30 @95 (this is my first attempt ever) did 20-10-10-10 reps, then I figured out I should’ve done it by reps of 10’s.

Great WU – 🍑 🔥 A. Back Squats – based off 190# (but pushed the %) 155# x 4, 165 x 3, 175 x 2, 180 x 2, 182 x 1, 181 x 1, 175 x 2, 175 x 2 ***180 is a 5# 2 rep PR! I pushed for all I was worth on the second rep at 182…thought my guts where going to explode.

12 secs slower than 11/30/20. I think this was fine considering I’m operating on 5 hrs of sleep today and the back squats felt heavier than they should have leading up to this.

Glad I made it today.
