Russian week 6 day 1

Squat
170 * 1 
175 * 1 * 2 (failed the 2nd rep for both sets)
170 * 2 (PR)



Time to deload and test my beltless 1RM on Friday, might even bring along my belt for a few belted sets. Twice people walk past me as I squat my original 175kg sets. Failed twice on the 2nd reps despite the first rep moving fast :( Built up a huge mental block but decided to be smart and back off 5kg for a small PR. Something is better than nothing at times. Still poverty squat but will train harder. Glute activation, hamstrings, lats tightness, big air as well as hip thrust. A lot of cues to get down as I work towards bettering my form. Russian squat routine is ending soon!
