If my low bar back squat for 3 reps has improved so much, it only makes sense that it also improved for 5 reps, it sure did, 275 was my very recent 3 rep max, but is now my 5, it was good the low bar position no longer feels very awkward like before.  My elbow seems next to healed, so I tried the exercise that started it all, the barbell bench press, didn't feel a thing.  It looks random, and it was a fellow trainer was training an old client of mine who has an ego problem so I decided to remind him that even though he's bigger than me, I'm still stronger :).  Having not benched with a barbell in months, and to come back and decline press 225 I am very pleased with, it was heavy but completed with solid form.  Great workout feeling!!

  1. You've ruined women for me since you introduced me to CrossFit. Now I look at someone like Lindsay Smith and think, "Nice rhomboids." That's so wrong.
