New Years Eve Squats

I always like working out on New Years Eve in the style I plan on working out in the new year. Tonight felt much better than last week. I'm pleased with the performance.

Warm Ups
Stretching.
Squats - 135lbs/8 reps, 135lbs/8 reps, 225lbs/6 reps, 315lbs/3 reps.

Power Phase
Squats (with belt) - 4 sets/1 rep/405lbs.
*5 minutes rest after each set*

Pump Phase
Squats (with belt) - 6 sets/4, 4, 5, 4, 4, 5 reps/405lbs + Black Bands (250 to 360lbs bar weight)
*3 minutes rest after each set*

A bit more speed on the Power Phase made it much easier. Much Much better than last week.

Happy New Year!!!
