Merry Squatmas! Nice squatting session before christmas, and to end the year (deload next week). 575×2 marks a new 2rm PR. Target single for 5-3-1 was 545, but that was cake and decided to go for the 2rm PR. Previous was @ 560. 545×4 would have been a rep pr as well and I know I could have smoked that. 600 is around the corner again. Also set a PR on single-leg leg extensions. Brutal stuff. Entire stack – one leg. Finished with light tricep and hamstring work, and some ab stuff.
