WOD - 20101001

Back Squat
1RM

Warm up and then find your 1RM Back Squat...take all the time you want, warm up how you want, drive towards your new PR how you want.  My recommendation is to take the previous 1RM and work the following progression -

5 x 50%
3 x 57.5%
1 x 65%
1 x 72.5%
1 x 80%
1 x 87.5%
1 x 95%
1 x 102.5%

i'll be at the Hardstand at 0600, but i've got to leave at 0640...i cannot make the Hardstand at 1700.  Post your new PR to comments...alternatively, post your 1RM of the day!
