Today's Workout:
A. Every minute, on the minute, for 5 minutes:
Front Squat
*Set 1 – 2 reps @ 60%
*Set 2 – 2 reps @ 65%
*Set 3 – 2 reps @ 70%
*Set 4 – 1 rep @ 75%
*Set 5 – 1 rep @ 80%

Rest one minute, and then…

Every two minutes, for 10 minutes (5 sets):
Front Squat
*Set 6 – 85% x 1 rep
*Set 7 – 85-90% x 1 rep
*Set 8 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 9 – 90+% x 1 rep
*Set 10 – 90+% x 1 rep

For sets 6-10, let feel dictate loading. The goal is to establish today’s “heavy” lift. “Heavy” for the day is the load immediately before that at which you would lose proper mechanics and positioning. If you determine that you’ve reached that load for the day prior to set 10, stop there.

B. The Girls in October...

5 rounds for time, of:
Run 400 Meters
15 Overhead Squats (95/65 lbs)

NO DROPPING BARBELLS FROM OVERHEAD!

C. "Optional Accessories"

Supinated-Grip Bent-Over Barbell Rows x 10 reps
Strict Toes to Bar x 8-10 reps (slow and controlled)
Rest as needed
