Warm Up- Back Squat practice
Group WOD
20 reps back squat max weight.
The way we figured this out was to ask the athlete what weight they could do for 10 reps. Then we told them they will do it for 20. Most folks were able to get all 20 reps.
Post your weight and reps to comments:
Here is the shot of Carey doing a Deadlift Rack Pull. ย The bar is not bending because its a cheap bar, it’s bending because that’s 265 pounds she is lifting there. ย Not too bad for a 110# lifter, aye?
Lil’ wobbly there GMD!!?? I saw on the board you knocked it out though…Nice work!
That was his 21st rep. Monte counted wrong and he wanted to be sure he did a full 20!!!!
Oh yeah it was @ 295lbs.
Greg… you are a MONSTER! Nice work.
I did 150#’s and felt like I could probably have done a little more.
My brother, Tom, did 205#’s having never done back squats before and it looked as if it was quite simple… I need his strength! Geez! LOL! ๐
240# This was great. I surprised myself.
I know the first person I’m calling when I move!!!!!
I wasn’t sure how much I could do since I have only done these once so I guessed at 50lbs…which I did do all 20 at that weight. I think I could have gone a little higher with the weight but for the next time we do this I will know ๐
Good job Greg!
My bad, he forgives me lol! I did 135lbs…I probably could have done more too….
Great job Greg and everyone else who did this one. This is a really cool workout. A lot of the challenge is mental, and most people can do more than they think they can.
couldnt do this one because of my hip so decided to focus on clean and jerk instead……
got a PR for one rep max at #167 so I was happy….
Did Front Squat (me and my OLY need some work, when I can land 205 at the bottom of a clean, but can’t stand up with it, it pisses me off…)
So Front Squat 20 reps at 145. 20 reps in the rack position with any decent weight absolutely sucks. That was horrible. Try it sometime.
