5/3/1 Squats. 5+ Day.

Back slowly improving. 

My back is still tweaked and hurt/cramped up a bunch during my warm up and working sets, but the cramps loosened and the pain dissipated fairly quickly after my sets, so that's an improvement over last time. I was even able to do assistance work today. Final set today called for 415lbs and before I went to the gym I planned on taking it somewhat easy and just going for 10. That's what I got -- with one or two left in the tank.

Goals for today:

320x5
365x5
415x5+

Lifted:


320x5
365x5
415x10











Assistance:

I took it real easy. I couldn't even do assistance last time, so this is an improvement.

high bar squats: 135, 225, 315, 405x1x2
front squats: 135, 185, 225, 275, 315x1
