Get a new back squat 1RM.
Do 8 sets or less:
- 5 reps at 50% (160#)
- 4 reps at 65% (208#)
- 3 reps at 75% (240#)
- 2 reps at 85% (272#)
- 1 rep at 90% (280#)
Then you have 1-3 attempts at a new 1RM. I did:
- 1 rep at 315#
- 1 rep at 345#
- 1 rep at 385# (failed this attempt; I should have tried 365# as I got 345# easily)
Then:
- max reps at 85% of new max (295#) -- I got 4 reps
I did not participate in the skills testing afterwards as it was all shoulder intensive and am giving my shoulder a break. I worked on mobility and did a bit of rowing instead.
