Damn busy days, didn't nearly have the time today for a full workout so picked a quicker ish one, stole the crossfit front squat workout from before.  It's 10 sets of 2 reps for front squats, some perform is lighter and quick, I decided to go heavy as possible.

Front Squats
Warmup
95x10
115x8
135x5

155x2
175x2
185x2
205x2
215x2
225x2
235x2
245x2
255x2
265x1 (tried second, but failed)

Damn, that was more weight than I thought I could handle, I spaced it out so I'd be at my max by the end.  Till this point my max front squat was 245 for a triple, 255 then became the most and the second rep was slow but completed unassisted.  I maybe should have tried 260, but said fuck it I'm going for 265, maybe even hit my goal for the year (265 for a double).  Oh I wanted it so bad, but after rep one at 265 I knew a second was unlikely, I tried anyways but failed and was forced to place it on the safeties.  Having said that, a 265 front squat 1 rep max I am proud of, hamstring to calf too, and damn 10 sets took longer than I thought.
