If you don’t have a 1RM then spend today’s exposure finding a heavy 3 rep that still leaves some room to move up in weight by 15-20 lbs. We’ll be doing triples as the heavy day with linear increases for this squat cycle so don’t hit the wall on day 1.

Odds on Salo?
The CrossFit Games are a mere 3 days away! Who do you see on the podium for the men’s and women’s divisions this year? Last night it was announced that there will be swimming involved in this years Games. Hope the competitors took a tip from the SBK Red Hook Swim Club and included some laps into their training!
It also goes without saying that we’re all putting our money on “The Warrior”, Jacinto B to take the top spot in the 60+ Masters Division. Fun Fact: Jacinto will be the oldest competitor at the Games this year!

i'm really excited to see swimming @ the games! someone commented on the workout saying swimming was very technical and strong swimmers would have a huge advantage in the WOD right off the bat – well, hello folks – it's crossfit. "expect the unexpected" – i'm excited to see it pan out. i'd be more nervous about 50 C2B pull ups with salt water and sand getting into my open wounds!
back squats!
(45×5, 75×5, 95×3, 115×3)
115x3x5
planned on going up to 125 but 115 felt heavy on my back and i didn't want to push it. tried to keep really good form and focus on the movement more than worry about the weight. i'm just happy to be picking things up and putting them down.
accessory work: 2 rounds of 15 2 legged RDLs w/ 10# plates, 15 K2E
