W/ RaySunshine
Brief warmup
Box squat-changed to a parallel box (and 2 mats): worked up to 5 x2 w/ 275 then 325x1, 365x1, 405x1 used ss bar and briefs (my cheapie Inzers not MJ Signature Series Haines nor Fruit of a Loom either)
Box step ups: 2x12+/ 75
Pull through squats: 3x15/ 130, 150, 170
45* reverse hyper w/ foot bar: 4x10/ 400, 490, 580, 670
Prison bar lat pulldowns: 4x15/ 150, 160, 170, 180 wide grip

For the first time in a long time I was able to squat wide without pain in my hip. Very happy about that. Previously I had been using a box that was definetely below parallel.

Kfng came in today and worked up to a nice 305 ss bar box squat (with a little bit left in the tank). Then he dropped down to approximately 80% and did 2 sets of 5 with 235. The rest of his training was the same as Ray and I's.

Whole lotta mo',
