Following my progressive overload strategy I had to squat 4 sets of 10 reps with 60 kg this morning.
Last Wednesday I really struggled to squat 57.5 kg and have been worrying the whole of yesterday whether or not I would be able to handle 60 kg.
This probably means that part of the reason I could not do all the reps on the last two sets were partly psychological.
| Start Time | 06:23 |
| Duration | 73 minutes |
| Calories Burned | 550 kcal |
| Session Type | Strength Training |
| Session Focus | Quads, Hamstrings, Glutes |
Next week I will attempt 60 kg squats again, and I am pretty confident that soon I would be able to do them for all the planned sets and reps. The fact that my squat weight is slowly approaching my body weight is also a great confidence booster.
I will however never be able to squat 540 kg like world record holder Jeff Lewis, even the thought of that is just scary...
