Workout 9/30: Back Squats

Have you ever heard the phrase, "My eyes were bigger than my _________"? You fill in the blank with something like "stomach." Well, today I found that my eyes were bigger than my strength. I thought for sure I could back squat more weight than I was actually able to do. Now don't get me wrong, my predictions were based on past performance, but it so happens that five back squats is much more work than one back squat. So, here it is...

Workout: Back Squats 5-5-5-5-5
155#-165#-175#-185#-195#
*I could have gone heavier, but I think that did it for today. I'll chalk it up to ramping down a little bit before the Urbanathlon. I'd hate to arrive at that start line injured or super sore.GO SOX!
