day 1 - 06/105x381%15010x386%138Idk why I get so nervous about doing the front squat sets. Went well.
22
23
day 2 - 06/1310x381%1505x386%138Feeling good. Good set. 3 weeks in and I'm already FS-ing 10# more than my 3RM FS. Nice!

day 1 - 06/175x384%15610x389%143Probably shouldn't have squatted today bc beach WOD yesterday really took me out, but it went ok

29
day 2 - 06/1910x384%1565x389%14310x3 back squats days better. Still start off with front squats though since they're harder for me.

33
day 1 - 06/235x387%16110x392%148Front squats sets rough. 2:30-3:00 timed rest between sets. Last rep of BS out of toes.
34
35
day 2 - 06/2610x387%1615x392%148This was really tough. I probably should not be squatting after a day of heavy or high rep DL.

WEEK 7BACK SQUATFRONT SQUATNOTES
45
day 1 - 07/0810x290%1675x383%133Weight kept shifting in toes, making those back squats feel heavier than they should.
46
47
day 2 - 07/105x290%16710x383%133Turned out to be a really good day for squats.

51
day 1 - 07/1610x381%1503x298%157Initiallly tried to start with FS, but only made 4/6 sets. So counted this as BS & 1/2 FS day.
52
53
day 2 - 07/195x381%1506x298%157Sets went very well. Must have been the fatigue from the games that got me on Monday
