Monday 2nd July<\/strong><\/p>\n

Back Squat
\n5 – 5 – 5 – 5 – 5<\/p>\n

Colin – 100 – 120 F(4) – 120 – 122.5PB<\/strong> – 100<\/p>\n

Previous PB for 5 reps was 120, so it was alarming to fail to match that on the 2nd round.\u00a0 It does look silly when you have 120kg on a bar and put 2 x 1.25 polos on the end!\u00a0\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Tuesday 3rd July<\/strong><\/p>\n

3 rounds :
\n50 Squats
\n30 KBell Swings 20kg
\n20 Press Ups.<\/p>\n

Colin – 14:27<\/p>\n

I surprised myself with this time.\u00a0 Because the 2 people either side of me finished sub 10min, and where I was in the gym, I wasn’t able to see anyone else working, so was convinced I was way behind when by the end of the 2nd round, I was already having to break the squats down to sets of just 5.\u00a0 Virtually the whole 3rd round was sets of 5 squats, and push ups were down to 2’s and 1’s by the end.<\/p>\n

I was amazed when I realised I’d finished before Steve and Richard!\u00a0\u00a0 I fear the freak result, if only for what it will mean for the next time this workout comes round.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
