Strength:
Back Squat 3×5
Add 5 pounds to weight used on 2Feb (click here for a refresher).
If you were not here, aim for 85% of your 1RM (or 5 pounds from the last time you did 3×5 on back squat). If you do not have a 1RM in Back Squat, try going up to Body Weight in the warm up. If you can get 8 reps, use that weight. If this is too heavy, drop 20 pounds. If it is too light, go up 10-20 pounds. Whichever you use, RECORD your WEIGHT! You will need this info….

You only get one bar, so if you have to scale either move, you scale both to the same weight. Goal is fast, correct movements. If you cannot do either movement with perfect form with the prescribed weight, scale accordingly.
Cash Out:
Couch Stretch – 2 minutes per side

Yes, I know the last move there isn’t exactly multi-joint, but the tricep is used in many of our lifts (dips, any pressing, helps stabilize the overhead movements, flexibility needs for front rack, etc…) we need to keep them strong and mobile. Don;t let the elbows flare out on this movement. Get these knocked out!
