Day 3 - Competition-style Squat

A. Squats (knee sleeves): 445x8, 475x1, 505x1, 515x1 (miss)

*Normally I don't work up after my main work (445x8) if I'm not feeling great that day, but sometimes I think it's a good mental exercise to go heavier even when things aren't ideal. In my mind, you design training so that you rarely miss weights, but you don't ever want to be afraid of missing weights.

B. Pause Squats - 3x3

C. GHR - 4x8
