5/3/1 3+ Squat Day

That highbar depth. 

Another subpar workout today. I've done 425x10 and 440x8 before, So I was wanting at least 9 with 435, but I only got 8. The only thing I can say is that today's reps were deeper than the aforementioned sets. For assistance today I tried high bar squats, and lots of them (about 20 sets of 1 rep each with 30 sec rest between each set). My thought is that these might help me with keeping my back tighter on low bar. Hopefully I have a better workout tomorrow.


Goals for today:

335x3
385x3
435x3+

Lifted:

335x3
385x3
435x8
