Balance Gym (Squat cycle:  10 of 16)

Front squat 2 x 3 @ 75%; 2 x 3 @ 80%; 2 x 2 @ 85%; 2 x 2 @ 80%

175; 185; 200; 185

Then, 5 x 20 Russian twists (25#); 10 windshield wipers; rest 30 seconds; 10 supermans (one-count hold at top); rest 30 seconds

Notes:  This was a "just-get-the-work-done" session.  My body was sore in multiple places and my legs were fatigued from Tuesday's tabata bodyweight squats.  I really struggled to get loose.  Whereas I was able to handle 200# for six reps last week, I was barely able to handle that much for doubles this week.  In any event, I completed the prescribed work and stayed on program.  Core work was okay, but my hamstrings are still brutalized from Sunday's RDLs and were crazy tight on WWs.  Need to really monitor recovery over the next few weeks because it's becoming increasingly difficult to recover from these heavy sessions.
