Training 7-21-14: Squats.

Warmup

  1. Bent-knee Iron Cross x 5-10 each side
  2. Cat-Cow Pose x 10-20
  3. Roll-overs into V-sits x 10
  4. Rocking Frog Stretch x 10
  5. Fire Hydrant Circles x 5-8 fwd/bwd/up+down
  6. Mountain Climbers x 10 each leg
  7. Cossack Squats x 5-10 each side
  8. Squat to Stand x 10
  9. Twisted Squat-to-Stand x 10 each leg
(weight x reps x sets)

Increased a rep on my 405s, added an extra set of paused squats as well as upright rows. All this at 11pm, so I call the day a definite win in my book. I hate training my squat late at night, but sometimes the day is so busy it has to happen. At least I belong to a 24 hour gym!
