Two things going on here.
First, kept the box squats easy because this was my first time squatting since tweaking my back about a month ago, next week I’ll add more sets up to 255 until I get back up to the full “8 doubles” workout that’s my bread and butter.
Second, after doing a 10x10 of goblet squats on vacation and being left with an embarrassing amount of DOMS for 2 days, I’ve had to confront the reality that despite all my barbell training, doing such low reps with my lower body has left me rather deconditioned. I think what I’ll start doing is, every weekday after the kids leave for school (before I start work), I’ll take 10 minutes and do this ladder (starting with our 18-pound bell, going up to our 88-pound bell, eight sets of 10 in total). Starting most days with a little micro-workout before I get into the workday should be practical and build a little conditioning into my regular routine.

Going to build up the box squats back to the full eight-doubles on the heels of my new daily-goblet-squat routine. For today, didn’t want to blow things out since this is more leg volume than I have been used to lately (and I need it). Will keep working my way up, adding a set or two for the box squats each week, and going all the way up to my 10’s-across from the 18 up to the 88-pound kettlebell.

For today, was easier to just grab the 44 pound kettlebell and do a trio of goblet squats between each set of bench presses, but I am keeping the momentum of doing some goblet squats every day.
