Max Effort Squat Day

Gym Temp: 70°
Music: Living Sacrifice, Ghost Thief

Warm up w/ Goblet Squats

Box Squats (to a just above parallel box using "Top Squat" attachment - relieves stress on shoulders and places weight a little further back)
135 x 5
225 x 3
315 x 2
405 x 1
455 x 1
495 x 1
515 x 0 - got pinned!!! Felt some pain in right hip and got out of the proper groove.
405 x 5 - dropped weight and did a few reps.

Sumo Deadlifts (done off 4" blocks - like I said before I am horrible at sumos - so I took some advice from a Dan Green interview and raised the bar off the ground to work on my form)
315 x 5
365 x 5
415 x 5

2" Thick-handled Farmers Walks (weight per hand)
110 x 100'
180 x 100', 100' - pretty easy actually.

Concentration Curls - back when I was a regular strongman competitor, I tore both of my biceps in the tire flip, so I really dislike doing curls. I think its the combination of scar tissue and nerve damage that pains me.
35s x 15, 12
