*had a client show up early so that cut training short.

Been using the AMP'd warm-up series and they work well. Shorter but more effective warm-ups than I had been doing. As for the "speed squats", well, I am doing free squats and doing them as fast as possible. I am using slightly higher percentages since I do not see myself in gear anytime soon. The plan is to start jumping again on a regular basis.

Stay strong,
Ed T.
