Frank (8/14): Squat

Squat
5x45, 5x135, 5x185, 5x225, 3x275, 3x315, 1x365
1x405 @ 9
1x430 @ 10-
1x430 @ 10
Box Squat
Plenty x 315
Some good morning-ing going on here. The two heavier singles might have been a little high, too. Carlos recommended I really engage the lats to keep my chest up. He also said that it might just be some general upper-body weakness. I'm cool with that. I could definitely work on getting more swole.

Somewhat ironically, it was also suggested that I try box squats (or front squats) so I could learn to stay upright and to sit back. At least I'll have a bunch of people there who can teach me properly.


Deadlift
5x135, 5x225, 5x315, 3x405, 1x495
1x575 @ 9-
Everyone else was deadlifting, so hey, why not? We used the whippy bar and bumper plates, and it was fast, so I guess I could call this a speed pull...

Ab Rollout: 3x5
