Today I decided to "squat more" so I did front squats:
315 x 2 paused reps 365 x 2 paused reps 405 x 1 Then decided on the spot to do a 20 rep squat workout 365 x 20 I lost my balance on #19 and had to take a few steps to regain. All I kept thinking about was that video circulating of Jesse hitting 405 x 20. It felt AWESOME to finally hit that 20th rep!!!! |

So far on front squats I can only hit 155x20. We'll see if I can get it up to 165 or 175 for 20 by year's end.

Best squat for me was off of a 15.5" box, which is around 2" below parallel for me. This was in the summer when I was trying out some Westside style training to get my numbers up. I hit 370lbs which was almost double my bodyweight (I weight ~195lbs at the time) in a belt. I tried 375lbs but as I sat on the box I sort of deflated and got pinned. The 370 went up in not too much bother but the core just wasn't strong enough for 375lbs.
The goal for summer was 180kg/396lbs but in spring I had too much time off, due to life situations. I remember late last year when I just started lifting that I couldn't even imagine me squatting over three plates, ever. One plate felt heavy enough! But I just kept squattin' and the weights kept getting more and more. Hopefully by this time next year I'll have a five plate squat, and be a lot bigger as well. Haven't lifted in a few months since I've been ill so I don't want to set any sort term number targets because I have no idea how much I've lost. |
