Notes:

* It is done.  20x405.  The Jessue Marunde number.  





* Yeah, his was 407, and deeper, and better, but I’ve had that video favorited in my youtube ever since I FIRST did Super Squats.  It seemed impossible to me then.  This is so monumental.  I’d love to come back and hit it even cleaner someday, but knowing I’ve got this in me, under these conditions, is fantastic.

* Connective tissues felt great going in and just a little beat up coming up.  I’ve come up with an effective strategy for a future run, and I’m excited about that.  

* My right hip started buckling around rep 16 or so.  Fun x-factor to contend with.

* How about that finish?!  Thankfully, only casualty was a little plastic container that I kept various odds and ends in.  Using bumper plates was a smart move.

* Pressing felt good today, but I called off the BtN presses to give me a little more room for success.  And after the squats I was absolutely done with anything else.  

* Riding this high for all it’s worth.  If I’m feeling good, Wed will be taking 315 for a long ride and Fri will be SSB time.  

* Will get in some sort of conditioning today.  Schedule is a bit nutty with some life events, but we’ll make it work.


PM Workout was 25 burpee chins in 2 minutes.  Still feeling the effects of those squats.

  1. I was looking forward to this milestone, to take nothing away from the other numbers you were putting up before. Awesome work. Like you, I've had that Jesse Marunde video in my mind for well over a decade now.
