– Could not effectively stabilize the 225 and spent most time holding the weight overhead. The squats felt easy but the shoulders fatigued leading to bar dumpage
You’ve heard the saying, “Didn’t do squat”? That was me today. Had to do squat therapy the whole time. Not flexible or don’t have the technique correct enough to do this with a load. Not a confidence booster……
95 Form work today.
1000 M Row for enjoyment 3:37. There are several things that destroy me, row is one, box jumps are two and OHS is three. I’m going to do form work consistantly weekly to work on these weak areas. Try to hit a solidly nice OHS within 6 weeks.
Good news is my lower back and core are feeling the efforts of today so that is good.
Just not enough shoulder flexibility or something…I totally cannot do these. Very frustrating. I even have trouble getting a broom stick back enough when I’m just working on form.

Their pu bars are fat like our, but painted which gives a pretty good grip. so good in fact that blisters formed on palms of both hands and ripped (no jokes, please). Great box. Highly recommended if you are in the DC area.
85-95(4)-95-100-115(4)
These were pretty much impossible for me a little over a month ago. They didn’t feel nearly as awkward this time. Still a long way to go, but I feel pretty good about actually being able to do them.

Overhead Squats: 95,115,135,145,150,155PR Form was deteriorating as I went up in weight (heels coming up)
If anyone is interested there is a Eurocross at UAH on Saturday. Its a 5k with obstacles and stuff.

75-85-95-105-115(2). Weight began to sway and lost it at the bottom of 3rd squat in last set. Need to focus on actively locking shoulders.

45# for 5 sets. Weight was light but really wanted to get form down. Feel good about flexibility.

65-75-95-105(PR)-115(4)
45# straight through. This is my max OHS
55-65-75(2)-75-85x-80(2)
Felt pretty good but need to work on strengthening lower back
All on bar. Got much more flexible as the workout wore on… must heed Russell and commence at-home squat therapy!
Wish I could have done this WOD but could not get to CF Boston in time and no bumper plates at Bally’s. Will have to get some OHS next week.
