Squats

During my training today I sent my wife a text. "My body is starting to remember the strength it forgot about". I didn't realize at the time how profound that statement was. Once I took notice of this my work out was charged with an incredible energy.

Warm Up
Leg Swings and Stretching.
Squats - 70kg/6 reps, 120kg/4 reps, 170kg/1 rep (easiest 170kg I have ever done).

Power Phase
Squats (with belt and knee sleeves) - 4 sets/1 rep/195kg, 1 set/1 rep/200kg.

Pump Phase
Squats (with belt, no knee sleeves) - 6 sets/6, 5, 5, 5, 5, 6 reps/145kg.

Today felt so good I added on both the Power and Pump Phase. Feeling great. At this rate my lofty goals for Nationals will be achievable.
