Front Squat 5-5-5-5-5 reps

Rounds
Warm up 8 at 135 AtoG
1 - 155 AtoG
2 - 175 AtoG
3 - 195 AtoG
4 - 215 1 below parallel, 2 at parallel
5 - 220 Failed
Cool Down 5 at 135 AtoG pretty much to floor.

As usual I only pulled up the search.  I did not open the page.  Every time Danile or I do something like that we jack the workout up.  I did this one.  For some reason when I pulled the link up it only showed the first post.  I should have started heavier and hopefully gone higher.  Either way I did do better I just did not go heavier weight just better reps.  Back not feeling good and both shoulders are hurting now since the overhead squats from Sunday.  YEAH!!!

Front squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps
Warm Up as deep as I could go as Clayton says A to G = 3 x 135, 3 x 155
Round 1 = 155 Way below parallel
Round 2 = 175 Way below parallel
Round 3 = 195 At or just below parallel
Round 4 = 215 only completed one at parallel and failed out
Round 5 = 215 1st not parallel, 2nd parallel, 3rd close to parallel
Cool Down, 2 sets 5 x 135 A to G, last set no weight belt
Good day I am looking for my last time doing this. But I am pretty sure this is a huge pr for me since starting cross fit. Used belt all round until last set of cool down. Last night my back was terrible. Felt decent today. No pain during or after. The only time I felt a twinge was after the first fail and then on the second nice parallel squat on the last round. I felt it then. I seem to recover from the bad back days faster than I used to. The pain I was in after the overhead squats yesterday would have been around for days. I was almost not going to come in for this because of yesterday night. I just need to remember to be smart and stay on the right track and remember what hurts and what does not.

Front squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps
1-135
2-155
3-175
4-195 1 good 2 sub par
5-185 1 good 2 sub par
Short one today but needed. Lats down spine felt like they were going to pull. I did test a little today. The leg strength is coming. Just went to heavy for as early as it is in my training. Back does not hurt any worse than normal right now. Good sign. Good to work with Daniel he keeps me under wraps. I started to think I could go higher earlier. I wanted to hit 205 today but he kept reminding me why I was there. Thanks Daniel.
