Friday-Day 5
I've been taking my osta@25 mg when I wake up although some days I will sleep in if I need to depending on how sore I am, but I've been trying to keep a fairly regular sleep schedule. Today was Day 5 so I usually try to do back squats but I haven't done front squats in awhile so I did a short and sweet workout around 5:00.
EMOM(every minute on the minute) Front squat: 5 on the min for 5 min@50-65% 1RM.
1st min: 185
2nd min: 205
3rd min: 205
4th min: 205
5th min: 225
I haven't done front squats in probably 2-3 months and haven't done my cleans above 185. I was having to use a thick bar since my buddies and I broke the regular Olympic bar doing deadlift which sucked but the bar was left out in the rain and served its purpose for a few months haha. This is the heaviest I've ever gone for this workout...I did it once before and did 205 for each set of 5. Considering I haven't front squatted heavy in several months I'm pretty satisfied but my front rack position is not up-to-par due to a lack of mobility so that's my fault obviously. Closing in on that 7-10 day mark that Dylan mentioned so hopefully it kicks in over the weekend or next week. I plan on working out tomorrow in the afternoon since my friends belong to a CrossFit gym and they have a free community class on Saturdays. It's mostly bodyweight so I will be getting in some extra cardio which is nice although I hate rowing or running cuz after 5 days in a row of working out my body needs a break! Sunday is normally my day off but I will post an update anyway. Cheers to the weekend, guys!
