Let's get back to some raw strength today...
MOBILITY:
Spend time hitting ankles & hamstrings with floss bands, lacrosse balls, bands, etc for 10 minutes...
STRENGTH:
Back BOX Squat
10-5-3-1-3-5-10
* Use a box depth that is SLIGHTLY below parallel & emphasize REACHING your hips back to the box with ribs down & knees driven out hard... BRIEFLY pause on the box also...
Here's a percentage progression to follow if you have a Back Squat 1RM...
10 - 50-60%
5 - 70-75%
3 - 80-85%
1 - 90-100%
3 - 85-95%
5 - 80-90%
10 - 70-75%
Obviously, you can adjust these ranges based on how you feel during your sets, but only go as heavy as your form dictates... A little breakdown is ok, but knees falling in and/or rounding your back is not worth it...
