I’ve picked up this bad habit on front squats where, on heavy sets, I take a big breath to unrack the weight, but I let it out as I step back. I did this today on my top set, and I greyed out a little. My eccentric was very slow, and I once I settled into the hole, there was no coming back up. So I guess I need to work on that.

Last workout of the year. I hate to leave things mid-cycle–mid-week, even–but that’s how things worked out. I’ll pick it up from here when I can get back into the gym.
Circuit: ten rounds (total reps)
Pull up (27)
Push up (40)
Sandbag Front Squat (55)
Grip static hold:
3 x 3 x 5 sec
Sandbag Clean and Press:
3 x 5
The sandbag is the one I made over the summer; today it’s loaded to 45 lbs. Rachel got me the Captains of Crush Trainer (100 lbs.) gripper, which is what I used for grip work. I’m locked out of the gym until Jan. 4th, and I’m avoiding the wet weather. I think workouts like this are what I’m stuck with for a while.
