4-22-14 – Strong(er) Squats
Posted in Ozzy Capetillo Training Log
First week of squats went very good, I felt I was explosive and that I stayed tight at all times. My first two working sets felt really light, which were 235 for 5 and 275 for 5. I felt strong when I was doing my first two working sets. Then came 305 for five which felt like the longest set of 5 out of all 3 working sets. This is also a first of not using knee wraps for my last heavy set. The weight did feel heavy towards the end especially the last two reps where I felt like racking the bar. I fought through the entire set and got all 5 reps. I still need to focus on keeping my elbows under so that I do not fall forward.
