Back Squat Progressions
Five sets of:
Tempo Back Squat x 3-4 reps @ 42X1

Please note the tempo prescription – this is a slow, 4-second descent followed by a 2-second pause at the bottom. The athlete should then attempt to move the barbell quickly back to the starting position, pause for a full breath and brace at the top, and repeat for 3-4 reps. Start around 65-70% and use today to build to figure out what you are capable of for this rep scheme.

Fantastic work Tom!!!!
20:4 165 reps. Finally happy with an Open workout this year, considering 145 lbs is my 1-RM on C&J and I managed 5! I took it very slow and easy to be able to save energy for the 65 kg C&J, wasn’t sure I was going to make it or not today. I was done with the first set of pistols with 6:45 min remaining.
Wahoo – congratulations!!!!!!!
