31 January 2013 – STRENGTH – Squat 3’s
STRENGTH Workout of the Day
MAIN EVENT:
1) Squat (3’s week)
[All numbers are based off of 90% of your 1-RM. For example, your first warm-up set is based off of 40% of 90% of your 1-RM. If you’re working off of a 185 1-RM Max, all of your set weights will be based off of 90% of 185 (which works out to 165). Your first set weight is 40% of 165, your second set weight is 50% of 165, and so on]
Set 1 – 40% x 5 Reps
Set 2 – 50% x 5
Set 3 – 60% x 3
Set 4 – 70% x 3
Set 5 – 80% x 3
Set 6 – 90% x 3+ (3 reps is your goal. Anything after 3 reps is bonus/fun. Stop 1-2 reps short of failure)

Focus on form here and not so much on weight. Focus on kicking your hips back and feeling tension in your glutes and hamstrings…
2B) Weighted Lunges 4 x 10/leg

A few x A lot
