John Broz, end of week 1

Did the 3rd workout in my new intro-level John Broz program.
Squatting 322.5 for 5x5 yesterday definitely felt more difficult than 317 a week ago.
But that's the way it's supposed to be. Still adjusting to the volume.

Yesterday I:
BS: 322.5 x 5s x 5r
OHP: 150 x 5s x 5r
Bicep Curl: 87.5 x 5s x 10r
Reverse Hyper: 4s x 10r


Was very excited about the 150 OHP. That's a sort of bench mark. Anything from here is uncharted territory.

The bicep curls aren't all strict, still some body english on a few reps in the later sets. I won't move up in weight till I can eliminate the body english. I'm not really pushing higher weights right now, this is just for volume as an assistance exercise.

The reverse hypers aren't f*cking me up like they were in the beginning.

Today I'll do a workout of:
Back Squat: 225 x 10s x 5r

The goal of the workout obviously isn't to go heavy. It's just to, again, introduce more volume in the goal of reaching daily squatting a la John Broz.
