Loads: 65#, 75#, 85#, 95#, 105#

(2) x2 in quick succession:
10 single leg calf raises L/R
30 calf raises

(4) 10 x 100m sprints, 90 second recoveries




Comments: Did better on the 5 RM OH squats by 25# from last time. The last set was pretty shaky and I just barely got 5 reps out. The sprints were deceivingly hard...much harder than I was expecting and I was gassed by the end. Timed number five just for laughs and it was about 13.3 but I was slower on 7-10.

My goal of 15 reps @ 100# looks pretty achievable right if I can keep improving. Probably gonna be sore tomorrow.
