Monday Workout: Back Squat Singles and Jackie

I hope everyone who joined us for the Park WOD had fun!  We had a great turnout, and got a lot of good pics.  We’ll be uploading them to Facebook early this week.  Thanks again for coming out!

STRENGTH

Back Squat, 1-1-1-1-1-1-1, 90-95%, Rest 90 seconds to 2 minutes between singles

Notes:  This week we will be doing some heavy singles, but these are not 1RM attempts.  Weights should be anywhere from 90-95% of your 1RM.  If you have not been following the strength cycle or joined in late, then you should do sets of 3-5 reps (at moderate weight) instead of heavy singles, unless you are an experience squatter.  Next Monday we will be doing a CrossFit Total (max BS, DL, and SP in the same session).
