WOD#172 BkSqt 5x5 45-65-95-115-125 9:25@122/148

WOD#172 BkSqt 5x5 45-65-95-115-125 9:25@122/148
Compare with WOD#48 at 65#(last at 75#) and WOD#18 @65#
125# is lower than a recent one rep PR of 135# but for 5 reps 125# is good enough. Perhaps the squats could have been a bit deeper in last set but I was having trouble balancing, especially with awkward shoulder positioning for stiff shoulders from the Jerks on Monday. It feels like the technique needs work but really the issue is that the back arch is not deep enough to sustain good bksqt at low point. I am pretty sure this depth has improved a lot from last wods though there is some more room to improve lower back flexibility.
