Posted: April 4, 2013 by totactfit01 in Uncategorized

Don’t Forget!  Friday Night Lights is going on one more time at 1930!

 

Day 64 of the 100-Day Burpee Challenge!

Strength:

Squat – 3×5, add 5 pounds from weight used on 4March
20 min time limit

Post weight used to Comments/LogWOD

If you did this back on 4Mar2013 (click here for a refresher), try adding 5 pounds to the weight you used. If you were not here, add 5# to the last time you did 3×5 on Back Squat, or aim for 85% of your 1RM. 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

WOD:
