Fantastic workout. I am probably most proud of of my first set squatting today than any other day, for low reps atleast. ATG, form stuck well, knees buckled slightly in the middle, but evened out, then I popped up at the top. On the second set I descended too fast on the first rep and I was a bit shakey coming up, second rep I only went to parellel.
First time sitting in the hole for front squats, well any kind of squat for that matter. It was actually pretty fun. I set the pins super low but I sat so fucking deep that the bar actually touched them, I could not believe it when I got back up and saw how low they were. Lowest I've ever gone. I had to fight for the last rep super hard, I experienced a new pushing sensation in my legs and core than I never had before, but form was 100%, woohoo. Just a good workout. I did tweak my left wrist though.
