Lifting 5/3/1 w3d3 Workout
Finally getting back to my Wendler 5/3/1 program in the garage w/ back squats.
Warmup:
5 min jump rope w/ double-under practice; 10 x pushups, situps, squats; 2 x turkish get-ups @ 16kg; 5 x chin-ups; some kipping practice.
Lifting:
BACK SQUAT
Warmup: 5 x 70#, 5 x 85#, 3 x 100#
Easy peasy, even having done 100# thrusters until failure yesterday.
Working sets: 5 x 130#, 3 x 145#, 1+ x 160# (12 reps)
Wow. There was a lot of screaming coming from the garage during the 1+ set. Neighbor kids playing in their yard must've been weirded out. I mean a LOT of screaming. My voice is hoarse. But I haven't done 5/3/1 in a few weeks because of the CrossFit Open and I missed it, and I haven't done just a lifting set of back squats in ages -- so I missed it and wanted to give it everything I had. My legs are super-shaky now and sore already. But this brings my 1-rep max up to 205#.
Conditioning sets: 5 x 10 @ 85#
Very good. Legs were shaky by the end.
