The Results Are In

Vic hitting a 70# PR on his 3RM LB back squat of 405lbs… Wow.

This last low bar back squat cycle came to a close yesterday (don’t worry, there will be another one soon enough). I knew there would be some PRs but I wasn’t expecting EVERYONE to PR. Awesome job! I am a proud coach to say the least.

Some notable highlights from yesterday (and the weekend):

  • Vic (pictured above) hit a big, BIG PR yesterday and increased from his previous 3RM by 70lbs. An increase like this is insane on any level.
  • Anne Marie of the morning class joined the 200lb club yesterday with her 3RM.
  • Bryan hit a 25lb PR and moved his 3RM up to 260. Pretty cool considering he competed in a Labor Day 5K at the lake yesterday and won third place in his age group.
  • Elizabeth PR’d by 45lbs and had the highest percent increase with 33.3% from last time. After a full year with us, she has improved so much. I am beyond proud of her.
  • Eric had the highest percent increase of the guys with a 24.2% increase. He went up 40lbs!
  • There was an average weight increase of 30lbs across everyone. 32.5lbs for the guys and 25lbs for the gals.
  • There was an average increase in percent change of 15.8% from everyone’s previous 3RM. 12.9% for the guys and 21.5% for the gals.

 

End Of A Cycle

Today we end our current cycle of Low Bar Back Squats. I can’t wait to see how everyone has improved. Please try your best to make it to class today. Oh and you have to do Karen… tough nuts.

Please remember to email in your results from the Paleo Challenge to Mason. This is the last few days of the challenge. Hold strong!
