65%?

Hey CFU,

Way to go to a lot of PR's on front squats Friday.   Remember to keep track of your numbers.  A lot of you have been asking what weight you should do for the lifts.  The number you just established will help answer that very question.  As we continue with the lifts you will have a lot more numbers and will be able to dial your percent. 

Also, please use the correct percent.  This is not a contest where you need to lift the same as someone else.  That time will come on max days.  I promise you that if you use the correct weight and focus on the explosiveness and form with the lower percents that when you come to max you may find yours exceeding that of the other person that didn't use the 65% 5x5 (or what was on the board) and went well above the 65% for the 5x5.

I understand a lot of people don't know their 1RM right now and that's fine.  I am not pointing fingers or trying to criticize anyone. Just trying to help. This is for your benefit, we want to make each of you stronger than the day before.  A lot of thought have gone into the program and we would not ask you to do something we have not done. 

Please read the following article, Legs Too Large? WTF? from Talk To Me Johnnie, I thought it was hilarious.

Get Stronger.
