5/10 WOD

Back Squat 5-5-5-5-5 reps

Legs were a little tired after the 800's last night, particularly the calves. Nothing like some squatting to loosen them up.

133-153-177-197-197

Nothing special with the numbers, still learning how to do "real" squats, not the old style stop short of parallel but then say you were bada$$ and did the squat. These were full depth baby. Lost a little form on that last set and felt it more in the core. All in all a good effort.

Speaking of good efforts, tonight started the first cycle of 5 on, 2 off for the newbs. Unfortunately Unelastigirl couldn't make it but to my surprise TWay went for it. I devised a nice little workout for them:

- Pull-downs (have bands for pull-up assists, just too cumbersome in a 1 minute effort drill) - 25#
- Deadlifts! - 35#
- Pushups - parallettes/knees/hips bent
- Situps
- Squats
- DB push press - 8#

1 minute of work each station, 3 total circuits.

So a great solo effort and a good start to the new cycle.
