The day after hosting our first powerlifting meet, I had to get some squats in. The meet went well despite it being an outdoor meet on one of the hottest days in recent memory in Pittsburgh.

Saurday blue 3 chains
SSB to a box 400-450-500 3x2
Front squat 1-2-3-3 plates 4x8
Belt squat 2-3-4-5-6 5x20 'speed'
GHR BW-5 partial, 5 full 2x20
Hanging leg raises
2x20
 

My elbows and wrists have been feeling like shit recently. I opted for the SSB today as a result. I worked up to 500x2 with blue bands and 3 chains (around 800# at the top). That was the planned number using a straight bar for that week, so this was a win.

Front squats are a bitch...or I'm a bitch. Belt squat working on snapping my hips through. And GHR's for some blood flow to the hammies after not hitting them the previous deadlift session.
