I don’t have a cable, I’m at a CF gym. What about a band tied around a rig at knee height, and pull through? ?

Starting tomorrow! I’ve lifted all weekend but I’m excited. I posted on the other week’s thread and am awaiting FB group approval but had a question.

The only thing I don’t have a history with is the 10RM squat. Should I just establish a 10RM and then hit 1×10 at 90% like the first week? Or use an estimate?

Hey Jan, my apologies. I’m new to the blog myself & was still looking on last week’s blog. Either way you would have been fine!
