Started with speed squats. Focus was one moving the weight fast and aggressive, and trying to find that PERFECT turnaround point where I sink deep and catch a stretch reflex, but before I sink too low and loosen up or get out of position. I didn't hit it every time, but I think I am getting better at it. Hit the bar x 10, 95 x 8, 135 x 8, 185 x 5, 225 x 5, 275 x 2 and then 315 x 2. It was a very solid and fast double. Then, dropped back to 225 and did 3 doubles, with a paused/doublebounce second rep. Felt great.
Rested up, then front squatted to a heavy single! Hit 135 x 4, 185 x 3, and 225 x 2, all with a paused last rep. Went to 275 and hit it for an easy beltless single, so I decided to just go straight to a PR - 325. I nailed it, despite some back rounding it was easy. So, I jumped up to 335! Hit that too - ton of rounding in the back and I came to a full stop for a split second haha but I got it! Really happy with that PR, couldn't have asked for much more than 335.
Finally, 3 x 12 RDL from a deficit with 135.
So, really good day. Big PR. Lets keep at it.
